Life’s better than that!

Motivational Moments 152 Forgiveness ~

Don’t hold grudges
or accuse others
in your heart. It’s a

poison coming from
you without you ever
realizing. Don’t harm
your soul. Forgive.

we don’t mean and
harm the ones we
love unknowingly.
Remember the body
heals easier than

the heart. Be
mindful always.

their mistakes.

think bad about others.

for them because in
all fairness, we never
know what the true

wipe it out.
