Asante, shy. Ni kweli.
Resentment makes us weaker. We think that it makes less of others, but more so it makes less of ourselves.
Forgiveness makes us stronger, more understanding, because we come to view ourselves not as victims of the world, but as lovers of it.
I had a friend who would not forgive me because he was full of hatred. Now he is the one suffering, while I have forgiven him for his hatred and am free. I know that it is his loss, and that is the smaller pain.
