"Forgiving" may appear as one word, but in its inner meaning, there are two words, "for" and "giving." Forgiving has less to do with another and more to do with giving to yourself — giving yourself the freedom to release tightness, let go of competition, unveil illusions of boundaries and limits. When you for-give you are giving simplicity back to chaos, joy back to anger, love back to fear, and constriction back to expansiveness.
