Don't Waste Your Time Stewing Over Things in the Past that You Can't Change. Instead, Move Forward and Focus on the Future.
Unforgiveness always holds you back. It's hard to reach out to new people when you're clinging to a grudge. It's hard to focus your energy on new ideas when you're staring at old hurts. And it's really hard to get a clear vision of the future if you're looking back at the past. The only way to move forward effectively is to leave grudges, hurts and the past behind. Letting go of old grievances makes you lighter, making it easier to run farther faster. When you forgive the people who hurt you, you drop that anger-drag and find yourself with something much more useful: a clean emotional engine, fueled with enthusiasm to move on with your life. When you let go of bitterness you can really go places.
'When you forgive, you in no way change the past - but you sure do change the future.' ~Bernard Meltzer
Get along with each other, and forgive each other. If someone does wrong to you, forgive that person because the Lord forgave you. Colossians 3:13
