   I can totally relate to this. The greatest gift any of us can give to ourselves is the ability to NOT be offended by what others say and do. More often than not, people do not even realize they are being offensive. On any given day, you will more than likely come across someone who offends you in some way. If we allow it, we could potentially be offended all day long! We have got to have thicker skin if we are going to succeed in life.

   On the other hand, if a person wrongs you in a much deeper way where unforgiveness begins to manifest, then you must be able to address the issue head on before anger and resentment take over. Even if someone does not want to admit or apologize for a wrong that was committed against you, you can still forgive them and let the offense go. Do not give anyone the satisfaction of holding you prisoner.

   It might help to realize that forgiving someone does not mean admitting that what they did to offend you is OK. Forgiving simply means that you, in your own mind, let go of the anger. It does not mean that you have to subject yourself to the same “punishment” again from that person, or tolerate that treatment from anyone else in the future.

   To let go of animosity towards others sometimes requires lessons of learning how to forgive.
