The act of forgiveness gives you new options for living your life on a much more realistic basis. Besides, if you don\u2019t forgive old wounds, they\u2019ll stay deep down inside you forever. Is that what you want?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Forgiveness has nothing to do with condoning or excusing the wrongs that were done to you. It means letting go of those old wounds so you can move on with your life. And forgiveness has nothing to do with assessing the degree of other people\u2019s guilt, or the relative evil of their intentions. That\u2019s because forgiveness is not about other people at all. You forgive others for your own benefit, not theirs. The people who hurt you don\u2019t even have to know that you\u2019ve forgiven their hurtful behavior. Your act of forgiveness is between you and yourself\u2014it\u2019s no one else\u2019s business.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"likebtn_container\" style=\"\"><!-- LikeBtn.com BEGIN --><span class=\"likebtn-wrapper\"  data-identifier=\"post_7969\"  data-site_id=\"63347fe36fd08b6c05de3d9e\"  data-dislike_enabled=\"false\"  data-icon_dislike_show=\"false\"  data-white_label=\"true\"  data-style=\"\"  data-unlike_allowed=\"\"  data-show_copyright=\"\"  data-item_url=\"https:\/\/unitedresourceconnection.org\/goodyear-village-az-cdp\/the-5-causes-of-anger-and-how-to-find-forgiveness\/\"  data-item_title=\"The 5 Causes of Anger and How to Find Forgiveness\"  data-item_image=\"https:\/\/unitedresourceconnection.org\/goodyear-village-az-cdp\/files\/2018\/06\/e833b10a21f31c3e81584d04ee44408be272e0d31db6194995f3_640_five-296x300.png\"  data-item_date=\"2019-06-12T12:19:25-05:00\"  data-engine=\"WordPress\"  data-plugin_v=\"2.6.59\"  data-prx=\"https:\/\/unitedresourceconnection.org\/goodyear-village-az-cdp\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php?action=likebtn_prx\"  data-event_handler=\"likebtn_eh\" ><\/span><!-- LikeBtn.com END --><\/div><p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.psychcentral.com\/anger\/2019\/04\/the-5-causes-of-anger-and-how-to-find-forgiveness\/\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Original Source<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Try looking at anger in terms of the following 5 reasons for angry behaviors: 1 \u00a0Seeking revenge.
