It is not the events that happen to us that define us. It is our response to those events that do!

 

I have a note from Chad on my message board that I look at almost every day. It says “ we all make mistakes. Sometimes forgiving our self Is the most important thing we can do.”

Years ago there was a terrible misunderstanding between myself and some close friends, and it really shook me. I felt like a terrible person for letting the misunderstanding happen, and I really struggled to forgive myself and move past it.

Unfortunately, things are going to happen that rock our world, and that we don’t have much control over.
