You know, giving birth is just letting go, or releasing that which I’ve carried. Forgiveness then is simply letting go. I am letting go of my egotistical expectations (and the offenses they can cause). It is a delivery, a way of bearing fruit. Forgiveness is the key to moving forward. To forgive is also the key to self-acceptance and to the joy of accepting and valuing others. Where there are generous levels of acceptance there is little need for forgiveness. Offenses occur where expectations run rampant.
