I thought I had learned how to forgive

As I read about the benefits of forgiveness, I wondered why I was not having the harmonious relationships, peace and happiness that is promised. I thought about doing more work on forgiveness. I began reading about Forgiveness and doing some of the exercises and realized that I need to continually work on forgiving to receive the benefits. Having started doing that, I am now looking forward to contacting some people from my past, this time with a more accepting and forgiving attitude.
