You will find freedom
when you forgive others, but most importantly, when you forgive yourself.
It’s easy to blame others for the pain and frustration you might be feeling right now. I know, friend. I’ve been there. While it’s more comforting to put the blame elsewhere, you must hold yourself accountable for the ways in which you have contributed to your struggle and the outcomes of the situations you’ve faced.
