Quote from a book reminded me of Cloud

There was this church that I went to with my GF, It's not a conventional kind of church instead they focus more on spirituality and thinking on life and topic for that day was about forgivness. Right before they started the service someone said a quote from a book that said...
"Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is the letting go of the past, and is therefore the means for correcting our misperception."

My reaction was like that of Keanu Reeves famous "Whoa." quote because what was said sounded like what Cloud experienced and something that he also achieved at the end of FFAC when he learned to forgive himself and he smiles (which is my fav part).

So anyways I just had to throw in my own two cents about that.

Forgiveness does have its healing powers. IMO it's so hard to apologize yet it's so much harder to forgive.

definaltly, when I have to aplogize for something I feel I almost have to force myself to do it. I couldn't image how hard it would be realize that the first step to forgiving starts with yourself.
