I came across a concept of forgiveness yesterday I had never thought about before.

When someone wrongs you the feelings of anger and bitterness are like a tasty morsel of bait inside a trap. You want to hold onto it and keep it inside you.

Once you take the bait you are trapped by the feelings and bitterness, anger and bad thoughts now possess you.


Forgiveness walks away from the bait and cancels the trap’s ability to ensnare you.


I had never thought of it that way before and was impressed by the guy who thought that way of explaining it. I thought it worth sharing.
