It comes with lot of difficulty to me too....but I try not to feed my negativity by not dwelling too much on why I got hurt. My husband helps in this. He always says, "Do not feed your hurt." And that helps a lot.sunaina sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07848852013009581839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642806346148349103.post-84899212625658235652016-07-11T00:50:53.495-07:002016-07-11T00:50:53.495-07:00Sorry but Forgiveness*Sorry but Forgiveness*Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15315061121170326026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642806346148349103.post-33891877944108380512016-07-10T14:05:30.092-07:002016-07-10T14:05:30.092-07:00Well said Sunaina.

I have practiced a lot to forgive. it takes quite maturity, time and courage to do that. But still I can't forget, and that makes me suffer a lot. So, I think I need to work on that too. I'm deeply inspired and touched by your post. Because I too feel, we should practice rather than preach. :) Sangeeta Mishrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13688928647289532302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642806346148349103.post-18605095041806682842016-07-07T03:03:29.698-07:002016-07-07T03:03:29.698-07:00In that case, I’d like to read your views on my bo...In that case, I’d like to read your views on my book first.

No, courage is the foremost requirement in the spiritual path. I’m definitely gonna read The Book of Forgiving. <br /><br />Many people recommended me to read Divakaruni’s The Palace of Illusion and I have also read some reviews of it but they never caught my attention, until I read your citation of the book in the present post. I’d like to read your view on the book, if possible. Once again thanks for such an enlightening post. :)<br />Ravish Manihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06743610113574998103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642806346148349103.post-4085182343454451252016-07-05T13:49:41.051-07:002016-07-05T13:49:41.051-07:00It is the road to peace.
