This quote means to me that you can learn something positive out of a negative situation

First of all, I think we need to have a definition of forgiveness. Forgiveness is when you give up your right to punish someone for what they have done to you.People ordinarily think that forgiveness is for those who are worthy of it, who deserve it. I honestly do not agree with this opinion. Forgiveness is an attitude of love and understanding.

INSPIRATION
There’s something very freeing about losing the anchors that have always defined you. Frightening, sad, but exhilarating in a poignant way, as well. You’re free to float to the moon and evaporate or sink to the bottom of the deepest ocean. But you’re free to explore. Some people confuse that with drifting, I suppose. I like to think of it as growing. #<Author:0x00007f39e601d2a0>
