forgiveness

quote on label:
Forgiveness does not mean that what happened was okay. It simply means that we are no longer willing to allow that experience to adversely affect our lives. Forgiveness is something we do, ultimately, for ourselves.

When I read this quote by Dr. Christiane Northrup in her book Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom, I knew I'd landed on the truth behind the real power and purpose of forgiveness. How it's really an act of liberation for our own Selves.

 

May this candle provide a step towards your own freedom through the bold, sometimes challenging and ultimately self-loving act of forgiveness.
