Forgiving.

To forgive means to stop feeling angry or resentful toward (someone) for an offense, flaw, or mistake. Why is forgiving such a difficult task and why is it forgetting an even harder task.  I think it is so hard because in our culture pride comes at a high cost. In our society having mistakes is something that is really frowned upon. We are expected to keep it together at all times; our looks, our actions, and even our feelings. When did we all of a sudden become capable of being perfect? Well here it is i am not perfect nor will i ever be perfect, yet at times i still expect the people around me to be perfect. The fact is that we are not perfect, Romans 3:12 states "They've all taken the wrong turn; they've all wandered down blind alleys. No one's living right; I can't find a single one." I think this world would be in a better place if we remembered this verse, if we remembered we are not the only one.
