We tend to hold on to our hate or anger but what if we'd forgive? What if we would forgive the ones that hurt us (repeatedly)?
I think we'd be much happier. We don't hurt the ones we hate. We hurt ourselves by hating them or being angry with them. We just have to forgive. Which isn't as easy as saying it. I know that. But it's what is best for YOU. You don't have to care about them. You just have to stop letting it hurt you! Because hate (or being angry) doesn't just happen because you don't like that person. Something happened. You (and the rest of the world) have to figure out why you're mad and what it is that you have a hard time letting go of. As soon as you know... LET. IT. GO! It's for your own good. Forgiveness is more important for yourself and your own health than it is for anyone else in the world. So do it for yourself. I saw a quote yesterday, it said 'Jesus died for your ex too'. I laughed at first and then I started to think about it. He did. Jesus died for everyone. Including the people who did us wrong. Including the people who crushed you. Just because someone is/was a #%*$ (fill it in yourself) to you doesn't make them any less worthy of life. I know I wished someone would just die or get stamped on the way they did to me but what would that have solved if I couldn't forgive? Then they'd be hurt or dead and I'd still be mad. What's the point? Of course, forgiving is never just easy. But it shows who you are as a person. Don't forgive them because you have to. Forgive them because you want to move on with your life and grow past it. It's the least you deserve!
