I came across a recent post on The Mind Unleashed which was titled: “10 Painfully Obvious Truths Everyone Forgets Too Soon.” One of the truths dealt with the need to forgive people who haven’t apologized to you. The post went on to say: “Life gets much easier when you learn to accept all the apologies you never got.  The key is to be thankful for every experience – positive or negative.  It’s taking a step back and saying, ‘Thank you for the lesson.’  It’s realizing that grudges from the past are a perfect waste of today’s happiness, and that holding one is like letting unwanted company live rent free in your head.”
