From the time we are born people are trying to figure out who we look like. Do we look like mom or dad? Then as we get older we're told who we should act like or who we shouldn't. Be more like your brother, don't get in trouble like cousin so and so. But we have to answer this fundamental question of, who am I, on our own.
There are many books and tests that help us do that. As Christians we know that we are children of God, born with a purpose to live a life of meaning, but how do we specifically fit into that plan? What did God design us to be and do for Him that only we can do? What patterns, ways of thinking and other habits get in our way so that we keep stumbling?
Our personalities are in part due to our genes, things we inherited from our families. Another part is our environment, what kind of family and culture in which we grew up.

Inspired by an article in Radiant Magazine about a woman who forgave her father after an affair, that produced a child, we tackle the process of forgiveness, according to our experience.
Exploring the depth of emotions, hang-ups, and struggles associated with the traumatic events that require forgiveness and being forgiven we realize that these moments bring us into a reality and truth about ourselves we wouldn’t have otherwise. It can bring us closer together and into a deeper, more honest relationship, if we let it.
These traumatic events can also make us stuck in life unable to move on and realize our true purpose. Forgiveness is not for the other person, it is to bring peace and a healing to ourselves. We have to learn to let go, in the proper time.
As usual we have no answers, we’re just exploring the options.
