“The way we are raised is largely due to our parents or environment. Whether good or bad, those influences affect our thinking about ourselves and how we interact with others. If you were raised to hate people of different nationalities or races, you most likely grew up to treat people the way in which you were raised. If you were taught, either directly or by your environment, that people of certain nationalities are less educated, you will eventually treat those people in that manner. Whether it’s the correct way of thinking is not the point.”

“No one is made to think, act or feel in any specific way. Free will has been given to us all, and people use it freely! You will inevitably disagree with someone. Someone will hurt you in some way, either on purpose or by mistake. Some people will have no idea they have hurt you at all, or even care. The question is not will it happen or will someone upset you, but what will you do when it happens? At the end of the day, the real issue becomes, what will you do then?”

“Things to Consider When faced with whether to forgive someone, we offer these few things to consider: - Do you want a person’s negative actions to affect you forever? - Do you want your inability to forgive to affect you in your future life? - Do you want your inability to forgive to affect your relationships both now and in the future? - Are you perfect in every thing you do and have no need to be forgiven of anything both now and in the future? If you have ever done any wrong to anyone, if you want to be forgiven, you must first forgive. If you answered “yes” to any of these questions…well, you may need help that this book cannot give. However, if you answer “no” to any one of them, you understand the need to forgive.”

“There are times in life and relationships where things, quite frankly, just happen. Sometimes a person doesn’t mean to upset you or hurt you, but the situation, circumstance or different ways of thinking cause hurt to occur. So, if you take the time to honestly judge a person based on the combination of the sincerity of their heart, along with the actions they take, they may prove to you why they did what they did, and help you understand their side. Sometimes, letting a person explain why they did what they did and opening your heart up to understand their viewpoint may be the love that is needed to cause restoration.”

“A young baby is new to life, and during the early years of development, they will put things in their mouths; they will cry and they will poop on themselves and that poop is gonna smell bad! But you don’t turn them back in to God because of what they do. You accept them for being who and what they are–babies. Likewise, if you let people be people, with their faults and flaws, you will better understand that no one is perfect. So, forgive people for being people.”
