We fail to recognize the importance of releasing conflicting emotions. Holding past hurts and unresolved grievances that do daily haunt us, like the guilt of losing a loved one or "What could I have done differently?" "The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive." When does the madness end, holding infections leaving you numb, empty, overwhelm by anger that threaten the health of the soul, that are trying and traumatic and hard to let go of its existence? Choking the blood to veins between birth and death. These things have a way of working out. Freeing from the grip of resentment, bitterness, and the desire for retribution. By forgiving, we let go of the emotional burdens that keep us stuck in the labyrinth, allowing us to move forward with a sense of hope, peace, and healing.
