Forgiveness

"people are who they are all their lives, and so their apologies are nothing but acknowledgements of their shortcomings in a token way, and they mean nothing to me."

There is something about this quote that I really like.

---------------------

"i find it's usually quite easy to forgive if you allow time for emotions to fade, then imagine yourself in the other persons position and be a bit lenient. we're all messy humans after all. think of mistakes you've made

doesn't mean you have to be besties with them, but it makes you feel better to not be dwelling on bitter feelings all the time"
