To forgive takes courage
To forget takes a lifetime
To let go takes wisdom
I have forgiven many in my lifetime who weren’t even sorry!!!
I have worked really hard to forget the bullshit travesties, I have also learned to let go of unwanted baggage but, I am human and we humans are a foolish lot.
We tend to pull the scabs off of old wounds and open the doors to those long ago battles that are better left behind, not me though, I have my moments, my woe is me moments where I will sit there in silence and watch the blood flow from me, unnecessarily so, just because the doors in my attic all swung open simultaneously and allowed for my monsters to come out and play.
Forgetting has never been easy for me, I have the brain of an elephant. I remember in details all things. I do not forget!
We all have demons we are battling,
unmade decisions to ponder,
one foot anxious for the new,
the other stuck in what was.
Miseries and mediocrity of stagnations, of things that were and should no longer be.
Rise from the guilt, for you no longer live in that space.
Allow your courage to protect you.
Forgetting takes a Lifetime… Be gentle to yourself.
We all have demons we are battling.
To Let Go, hhhmmmm – Yes, at times I have willingly let go and at others I have been forced to.
I had learned to “Let Go” long ago, maturity, pain, discomfort, growth, love & agony have been all reasons.
To Let go takes Wisdom and I, my friend, am a Mother Fucking SAGE!!!
To Forgive takes Courage
To Forget takes a Lifetime
To Let Go takes Wisdom
At times, Somewhere in the middle…..
~ I FORGOT
…To FORGIVE
…MYSELF!!!! ~
Courage – Lifetime – Wisdom
