.sorry.
the word forgiveness seems really big. to forgive and forget, to forget but never forgive, or to forgive but never forget. we must have pondered upon these words at least once in our lives. and to some people, more than once.
people make mistakes, we makes mistakes. sometimes we hurt people, sometimes we get hurt. how often does this process get in the way of us moving forward in our lives..?
unless we've had permanent brain damage, or perhaps a serious case of amnesia, it is usually hard to forget..
but in our most strong yet fragile heart of ours, we can find it in our soul to forgive, the ones who might have hurt us in any way, for it allows the anger to rest in peace so we can move on to a brighter day..
sometimes in our hearts, when we lay ourselves to sleep at night we say to ourselves..
"will he/she/they forgive me for that i have done..?"
but did we ever question this..
"i cannot forgive myself for what i have done" ..?
it is when we have a question like this, that we sometimes lie sleepless at night, or that we try so hard in life, to make things right, we push ourselves to the limit, either blaming ourselves or proving it the world that we are okay yet we are never really okay.
it may not be the easiest thing to do, but i've learned, forgiving in its own, is the most humane thing a soul can do, to one's own self, and to another.
i learn how people sacrifice their lives for the ones they love. i learn how it feels to not have a choice. i see how horrible things are on the other side of the world, where buildings turn to dust and people die on streets. i realize how important it is to forgive. something i learned how to a long time ago, but have forgetten how important it can be.
