About Pride:
The kind of pride that hurts us is sometimes called false pride. It is when we put ourselves in a state of opposition to others. It is when we feel hatred, jealousy, resentment, superiority, ill-will or anger towards another. One of the problems with this kind of pride is that is makes you unwilling to forgive others. It makes you want to hold onto the real or imagined hurts and leads you to anger, frustration and resentment.
About Forgiveness:
It is important to realize that letting go of old hurt feelings help you. You may be justified in holding onto hurt feelings, because it punishes those that hurt you but in reality, holding onto negative emotions hurt you, not them. You have the power to do something meaningful that can be life changing, especially for you. You can decide to forgive them, thus freeing yourself of all of the negativity associated with the problem.
“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and then discover that the prisoner was you” by Lewis Smedes.
About Charity:
The ability to forgive others arises from our ability to love. The purest form of love is unconditional love, also known as charity. Forgiveness and Charity help us to avoid getting trapped emotions. This frequency doesn’t allow room for any of the dark feelings that could create trapped emotions. It helps us to become givers and grateful receivers rather than takers. It gives wholeness and a sense of belonging. When our hearts are full of charity, we are much less likely to develop trapped emotions. We are forgiving, patient and kind.
About Integrity:
When we live congruently with what we know to be right and true, we have integrity. It is a virtue, an inner strength, and honesty with one’s self. It drives people to be there best selves. When a person chooses to live in integrity, he is at peace with his own heart and mind.
