Forgiveness is not simply a single act, it is a full process.

About This Quote

Forgiveness is not simply a single act, it is a full process.” In this quote from author Candice Millard, she brings to light a truth that people often overlook. Forgiveness can be a difficult process for us to follow through with, but it is a vital step in the recovery of our emotions and relationships. We must forgive in order for us to move forward. If we do not forgive others, we will never be able to move on from whatever has happened, whatever has been done. Without forgiveness, we will never be able to heal from any pain that may have been caused by another person’s actions or words.
