I know I have written on Forgiving a few times, its part of my JOURNEY! This post is sorta like update on how I have come long way and what I have learned through it all.
I never knew how much it could
destroy me, holding so much
angry in my heart!
Learning to Forgive
hasn’t been easy
Now
I can honestly look at
the person I was so hurt with
without anger
in my heart.
You know I tried to understand his
pain, but the way he act destroyed
my compassion I once had for
my own flesh & blood
Maybe it was me been sick
and laying in the hospital
that truly got me thinking.
Or maybe it was me working
on a better relationship with
GOD
That showed me how
Learning to Forgive
could be healing process
for the soul
as well as for the body
It hasn’t been easy!
but so worth the JOURNEY
to overcome.
it truly does make you feel good
on the inside
Learning to Forgive

After taking a break from the post and coming back to it. Before Christmas I saw something in me, I had started to forgive my brother, and saw how much I needed to learn to forgive the other person I was mad with. I shouldnt’ have so much animosity in me, when I’m struggling with trying to make it day by day with my illness. having talk with my mother by somethings and I realize how my body felt when I talk about certain person. I let myself get the best of me and felt like I was choking. That was a sign to let it go and end the conversation. The post is about Learning to Forgive and how I’m a working process.

Wow! After reading this was like looking in a mirror. Not too long ago I was deeply hurt by someone I thought was my friend but they used me for their own selfish needs. They want to make amends, but I don’t know. This isn’t the first time they’ve screwed me over. I’ve managed to forgive them, but not this time. They not only hurt me but they embarrassed me too. I want to forgive them, I do, but that’s not the problem. Forgiving is easy. Forgetting is hard.
