Forgiveness

I got an apology last week that I never expected to receive. I cried a lot, they cried, I hung up and cried some more. I say I hold grudges and it’s true, some people just aren’t meant to be forgiven but everyone isn’t worth losing either. I’m learning there are connections you have to work through, others you have to severe for your own peace of mind. This connection we’ve had to work through for years and years, I never saw it changing for the better but the key I’m discovering is to understand each other, no more molding and attempting to change someone into who I want them to be. Releasing control.

I want understanding from people, more than love, now that I’m finally understanding myself. I think love is easy to give, I say I love you to everyone and I do mean it but to take the time to get to know someone, what makes them who they are, means so much more. To the adults who had rough upbringings, I pray you receive an apology too. If not, please shower yourself with the grace and compassion you would give to others. I see y’all xoxo.
