The Rules of Forgiveness

People always tell me that I am way too forgiving. I tend to go the extra mile and give others the benefit of the doubt too much. But thats me and I don't know any different. I don't know how to stay mad for very long neither do I hold a grudge for too long. I just feel it takes way too much energy to pull your face. So I just forgive and I will forgive again and again and even again but when I get tired, and there has been occasions when I got tired. Then I will cut you off so badly you will question your own existence.

In my life, I have learnt that there are good people and unfortunately bad people as well, and we all are not perfect, we all make mistakes and mess up occasionally and say dumb things in the heat of the moment and for that I can forgive. But if it becomes the norm and it drains the life out of me each time we have a conversation or interaction. I will just pull away and call it a day. But first I will make sure that I have done everything humanely possible to give you a chance so when I say my prayers I can justify my actions to God. Cause there is no one else I fear in this life of mine, than the wrath of the Almighty.

But what are the rules of forgiveness? I don't think there are any. Everybody has their own tolerance level and different levels of anger. What irritates you wont necessarily irritate me so I wont get that upset with you about it, so there would be nothing to forgive. It also depends a lot on your upbringing. You might be more forgiving towards adultery or abuse if you were exposed to that growing up. So you see, there are no rules. All you really have is your own standards to rely on and you don't have to explain those to anyone. That's what makes you YOU!

So in this world where we all have to deal with forgiveness on a daily basis just remember what others tolerate you don't have to. You are unique. Develop your own standards of forgiveness that makes you comfortable with yourself and your spirituality. You don't have to concern yourself with other peoples opinion of you cause what really matters is what you think of yourself.
