For what ever reason.
No matter what season.
We must all learn to forgive.
In this life we live.
We don’t always agree.
How things will be.
But it takes a big heart.
And one that is smart.
Admit when they are wrong.
And were they belong.
No reason to fight.
It will not make it right.
All it will do.
Is make one pursue.
To lash out
And shout.
Make you feel small.
Or make the next call.
Just to see.
Who can be?
Wrong or maybe right.
Wow what a sight.
Sometimes it’s best.
To let it rest

Hmmm!I had to ponder over this poem concerning forgiveness for a bit before I responded.First I must say that there are deeds,crimes & atrocites commited on to others that I quite frankly find unfogiveable.However those of lesser nature of course must be forgiven most certainly.I once lost a friend(no name mentioned)here @JSH because she completely humiliated me in public forum before all of my friends.Which cost me a long absence from my 2nd home.I never asked for or expected a public apology but one e-mailed would have been completely acceptable.However she aired towards the denial factor,hence a friendship was lost.If she had however it most certainly would have been squashed immediately & forgotten.That was her choice then not mine so as U can see there are sometimes other factors that must be weighed concerning forgiveness.Just my opinion sweetheart.Godspeed!Cybear;=)

I do hear you and understan were you are coming from. But.....we all must realize that in order to move on with our lives we must be able to forgive those that have hurt us. It is something that one must step back and look within our minds and in our hearts. For in order to move on we first look within. For you see when we can't not forgive there deep inside it is like a posion that is growing within. We can't help but to think about it at times that brings a black shadow over our hearts. At times this shadow will take over our minds and make us a prisoner within our own homes. I know you know what I'm talking about. That posion will slowly begin to eat at us little by little till we are a prisoner within our own bodies. And for the life of us that is not were we want to be. But..... it tends to consume us at times. Maybe for a day or two or even for weeks or months. Now just because we forgive which in turn that is what helps us deep within in order for us to move on. We can not correct the actions of others. But we can correct our actions we chose to take. To forgive it relieves our burdens as well. But now in no way am I saying one should forget. For there are things in this life I will never forget nor will I trust that person again. But yes I do forgive them. For is it not God that says we must learn to forgive others for what they do and the actions they take. To forgive one cleans your soul and puts your mind at rest. Yes it does take strenght from inside and a lot of deep thinking to realize it is best. But I will say this it is as if you lift very heavy weights off of your shoulders when you can do that. Let them live with that burden why should you carry there burdens and let them eat you alive when they could care less. But as I said we can learn to forgive a and lift that burden off of our shoulders but we don't forget and and that trust they were given so freely. Well only way they will ever get it back again they will have to earn it. bigsmile Just take a few and think about it. Only you can decide what is right for you. And to have peace of mind.bigsmile
