Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.

~Joan Lunden

That was the affirmation from Doug, one of the founders of the site, a few days ago. I really like it. Wipe the slate clean, forgive but don't forget. Forgiveness allows you to move forward. Remembering allows you to see how strong you really are. I'm not angry or bitter. Anger is not worth the energy or fight.

It's a good day.
