Forgiveness is one of the tougher things we battle with on a day to day basis. To forgive means to trust, and trust is something that is not easily obtained or rebuilt. Who needs forgiveness? Why should you let go? How many chances do you give?

Here is something common for all of us: we expect people to forgive us for the wrong we have done, but to forgive someone else is much tougher. We need to take a step back, evaluate the relationship that is at stake, and move forward. Life is too short to hold resentment towards others.

Each episode in Season 3 is going to pull on your heart strings. We all have given up on things in our lives but when we start talking about giving up on significant figures, such as a parent, it begins to shape our character and what we believe in as we grow. We had a great conversation about how our fathers have played huge roles in our development and how others can learn from their parent’s mistakes.

What do we do if we don’t have that figure? We dive into that question and many more.

Throughout this conversation, we have realized that every person has a different definition of what makes a meaningful life. That definition is what drives their happiness, their goals, and their emotions. There is no wrong answer to this question, but the answer to that question tells the story of a person and where they want to go. Join us on an in-depth conversation on the different meanings of life and how some of them may be related in more than one way.

The problems that we have in our lives and the ability to overcome them is what gives us meaning. This student couldn’t be more accurate. When we are able to overcome problems, it gives us a sense of confidence and identity. When we overcome those mountains, we have the confidence to take on bigger ones.

Keep fighting…
Don’t give up…..
and darn it if you need some help don’t hesitate to ask.
