The power in redemption

A former colleague posed this question on his Facebook profile recently: How does one forgive himself?

I replied to him in this manner:

Here's how I forgive myself:
- I tell myself that forgiveness is difficult, and to to be patient with myself.
- I tell myself to love myself more by for example, doing things for myself that I like (reading books, listening to music, catching... concerts etc) and hanging out with people I like.
- I remind myself always that I am not perfect and should not expect others to be perfect, too.
