Day 04 → Something you have to forgive someone for.

Forgiveness is more than sayin' sorry. Have you ever seen Just Friends with Ryan Reynolds and Anna Faris? If not then go watch it. The first line of this post will make you laugh out loud.

After my last post, people would say I have to forgive the other person involved. Oddly, I have. No really, I have. We even speak now and are friends. It's funny how that works out.

I have never been good at holding grudges or hating people forever. I often forgive people before they even realize that I'm no longer even angry. I honestly can't think of one single thing I have to forgive anyone for. I'm not mad at anyone currently. I'm not holding onto any anger. I grew up in a home with an alcoholic father who often beat the shit out of me, and I've forgiven him. I've forgiven my ex for the hell he put me through. I've forgiven Scott for the things he's done wrong that have hurt me. The thing with me is, if I haven't forgiven someone, I've straight up cut them out of my life and won't look back. Sometimes it's better to sever ties and move on instead of holding onto feelings that won't do you an ounce of good. Let this be a lesson to you - holding onto anger hurts no one but YOU. It only makes you bitter and angry and distant from those around you. It won't fix the wrong that was done to you. It won't help you move on. Forgive and forget. You'll be doing yourself a huge favor in the long run.
