One step to healing is forgiveness. Sometimes not because the offender deserves it, but because of your sanity and peace of mind.
It is not always easy to let go of resentment and hurt, especially by someone whom we love so much, even without closure. If we are truly kind to ourselves, we must find our inner strength to move on regardless.
Holding on to grudge does more harm than good to our well-being. We carry a heavy heart about and that begins to steal our joy and eventually affect our quality of life.
What if you look at it from this angle. Pain makes us stronger. Hence the adage, "what doesn't kill you, make you stronger!". The courage to cast all burdens away, lies in how much you love yourself.
Each tears teaches us a lesson, and since learning is a part of life, we learn to embrace it even though it hurts so much. People come and go, most times it's us we've got for ourselves at the end of the day. So why won't we stay strong?
Time and again people fail us, but we keep praying that they too find peace. Some are probably battling with guilt-trip for hurting you so badly but they do not know where to start from. These ones are deserving of peace too.
Learn how to fight for your peace of mind no matter how hard it gets and wish those who hurt you goodness from the depth of your heart.
Pray that they too find healing. Pray that their soul is changing, so that they can be a better person.
Breathe.. Heal.. Move on. They made you stronger than you could have imagined.
Kesha song "Praying" Inspires us that we can choose to show empathy to those who have hurt us in the past, we can choose to let our peace be the reason for letting go and finding healing even in a hopeless situation.
The beautiful thing about healing is how it makes us happier and a better version of ourselves. Once you can look who hurt you in the eyes and not feel anger or see the need to revenge then you've truly healed.
Never let anyone steal your glow and make you feel miserable. Endeavor to find your peace at all cost and let go of what you have no control over, so long as your intention were pure, then I think it's never your loss!
