We are all flawed and it is so easy to criticize someone for their flaws. It is so easy to forget that. Sometimes the things we criticize someone for are the very things we can’t tolerate in our self. And we come down hard on those who demonstrate their imperfections. If we can remember we are all flawed and sinners, which is just another way of saying the same thing; then, we can be more compassionate of others. Everyone makes mistakes.

Sometimes you just have to let things go. It does not matter if you or your mate was right. You have to give your mate a clean slate every day. ‘Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath’–lines from the New Testament.
The devil uses unforgiveness to pit one mate against the other. And we are all imperfect. And each day each person make mistakes so it is important to let them go and start the day afresh.
There is wisdom in those lines from the Bible. If you do not forgive the other for their failures, resentment builds and drives a wedge between you.
Forgiveness allows you to love your partner fully and with humility. Each person knows in their heart that they are not perfect so why should you expect your partner to be otherwise?
