Forgiveness is letting go of the hope that the past could have been any different - Toke Makinwa


Media Personality, Toke Makinwa, is currently in the U.S on a tour for her bestseller tell-all book, On Becoming. She shared some advice via Instagram this morning, reflecting on the importance of moving on from your past. She wrote;
"Make peace with your past, accept the apology you never got from the people that hurt you, do it for you. Forgiveness is letting go of the hope that the past could have been any different so stop replaying it in your head, stop making excuses too. It happened and it's ok. The burden of guilt will crush you so breathe and embrace the new normal. Anger will eat at your soul and no one deserves to wrinkle your face so smile even when it hurts, your heart will thank you for it later and don't seek revenge, you waste your life living for someone else if you do one day you'll wake up and realize that what seemed so huge is now sooooo little. Whatever you do, wake up each day and write a new chapter of your life. Do it on your terms and LIVE, you never know when the dice will roll in love"
