things we don't get to say

When it comes to strained relationships, the problem is that we think we have time or that someone else should go first. There are plenty of opportunities we miss to say what needs to be said — I'm sorry or Thank you.

But there's no reason to beat ourselves up over moments that have passed us. Vow to make better choices from this point forward. Forgiveness provides us with a fresh start and grants us a sense of lightness.

Let go of emotional burdens. Say what needs to be said to repair connections with people that matter, and do it with compassion, with a forgiving heart.
