15 Reasons I have learnt to forgive when I didn’t want to.
I have truly learnt in the past week (post break-up) that sometimes the hardest person to forgive is the one that you want to stay angry at.
*Please read the last two articles in our LOVE section if you are not up to speed.
This past week, I have been focusing on forgiveness so that I can rid myself of toxicity which manifested it’s way into my life through pain. Pain that was inflicted by someone who I used to be with.
Something else that I have learnt is that pain likes to personify itself and if you don’t catch it, it will take on a life of its own. That’s why forgiveness is the best option for me right now:
Here are 15 reasons why forgiveness is so important to me right now:
1. I forgive because toxic habits and thoughts have no place in my mind and my heart.
2. I forgive because life is about progress.
3. I forgive because freedom starts with peace.
4. I forgive because when it’s most difficult to forgive is when I need to.
5. I forgive because I want to see the silver-lining.
6. I forgive because I want to get out of my own way.
7. I forgive because I want to keep my heart open.
8. I forgive because pain goes on for as long as I want it to.
9. I forgive because there is always a bigger picture. I may not understand today but one day, I will.
10. I forgive because sometimes love requires actively leaving the past behind.
11. I forgive because the best way to learn is to become the observer.
12. I forgive because I am done taking things personally.
13. I forgive because my mindset determines how I heal.
14. I forgive because this moment is worth enjoying without the cloud of the past raining on it.
15. I forgive because I refuse to hold on to someone else’s baggage. That is theirs to deal with as I have mine to deal with, too.

10 choses que je refuse de déterminer ma valeur.
image par GettyImages
Honnêtement parlant, je dois me rappeler chaque jour d'où vient ma valeur. Il est facile de croire que notre valeur est déterminée par ce que nous avons, qui nous date et combien d'argent nous gagnons.
Cependant, nous déterminons notre estime de soi.
Ce sont les 12 choses que je refuse de déterminer ma valeur:
Parce que l'argent va et vient.
Je n'ai pas besoin d'un homme pour m'aimer pour savoir que l'amour existe.
3. Ma couleur de peau.
Que ce soit clair ou sombre. Ma peau mérite d'être appréciée pour tout ce qu'elle fait.
4. Mon genre.
Tout est une question d'égalité.
5. Ma nationalité.
Nous méritons tous d'être traités humainement.
6. Ma couleur de cheveux.
Qu'elle soit naturelle ou teinte, la coiffure est un choix.
7. Mon travail.
Parce que les emplois vont et viennent.
8. Mes échecs.
Il y avait toujours une leçon à y trouver.
9. Mes problèmes.
Les problèmes m'ont appris quelque chose.
10. Matériaux et regards.
Nos âmes sont plus profondes que ce que seul l'œil peut voir.

4 things that I have learnt to accept
I love getting older. I spent so much of my late teens and early twenties feeling insecure, making mistakes and making a fool out of myself. I have no regrets and over those years, I have learnt to accept these four things:
1. Your intuition is real.
Insecurity is often coupled with doubt. When I was younger, I was doubtful about a lot of things regarding who I was and signs related to the path that I should take in my life. If I met people with energy that I felt was needy, disingenuous or mean-spirited, I would cover it up with, ‘Don’t be silly’ or, ‘Maybe I’m exaggerating it?’ However, now I know to accept people and things as they are. Intuition is looking out for me and it whispers today and screams in a few months- I might as well listen to the whispers.
2. No man is worth chasing.
Ridiculously, this took me 5 years in a relationship with a man who was inconsiderate and selfish to realize this. He was the King of playing chess with my emotions. To be frank, I have only made peace with it and him this year. We met when I was 21 and when I was younger, I chased the idea of him as I was under the impression that people in a love-situation are worth fighting for. However, the person that you are in a relationship with should be fighting too; not only you. I know now that if the person you love isn’t putting in the effort like you are, let it go. Being alone is better than crying and agonizing over someone who is playing games with you.
3. Belief is powerful.
Whether it’s self-belief or belief that you will get a job or an apartment, you need to believe in order for it to happen. Belief reminds the universe that you are on the same page and reminds you that you are able. Across all religions and spiritual texts, they reference to the power of belief because belief is the first and most important part in being better and doing better.
This can be painful to accept but once you do, it is very liberating. I’ve never really been a suck-up; however, people not liking me used to bother me. I would need to prove to people that I was worthy. I often tell people the story of when I had someone that didn’t like me take my yoga class a few years ago, she decided in 5 minutes of the class that she didn’t want to take it- so she left. She cursed at me behind the door that I shut after her and complained about me to the girl working front desk that evening. Once she left, I made a decision to let her go because I had over 30 other people in the room. I could focus on her or focus on the people who are enjoying my class- this lesson has transferred to all areas of my life. I no longer have a need to seek approval from people who don’t like me because I am enough, with or without other people’s approval.
