Reason

Not all happy endings got happy beginnings
Determination and resilience can alter the wildest egos
It sure hurts to see a friend turn to a foe, but look at the positive side of it,  it opens a channel of meeting new even better friends.
You need to grow too. drop them too. Your current life status wouldn't accommodate them.
They have made you the person you are today. Times change, people do even for better, there is definitely a reason they have not made to your future.
Every passing day, you make a choice. If your sad you choose to be, Every successful story has a theme of sacrifice. There was a season of sorrow, but never gave up.
You have got to fight on, you need to always put the armor of hope wherever you go

Letting Go

When you decide to forgive, its a gift to you. you need to realize you have opened a new chapter of your life. You will at times re track to what had happened when the same person wrongs you.
We have all been wronged and betrayed by the people we love
Most of us we are still carrying the baggage of that pain
We analyse it like it did happen few days ago
You may have been betrayed by your sibling,
You may still be in denial that you are no longer friends
Your best friend took off with your husband
You parent may have denied you a decent upbringing affecting your self-esteem
Your relationship with your mama may be stale
Your spouse may have betrayed you
You are struggling with forgiveness because you are in denial. Accepting a loved one broke their trust to you can be detrimental. It does haunt all of us.
Deciding not forgive feels better, it feels justified. But we need to face our fears, you need to figure out what forgiveness will mean to you. Are you afraid of letting go because it would make you helpless or are you afraid you would be hurt again?
You need to forgive to be able to move on, it doesn't really matter
You need to be able to forgive for you to trust again. If the offender shows remorse and is ready to go it again,give them a second chance, you would live to tell a story.
You must not be selfish, you too at one time were forgiven.. do you remember how it made you feel to be forgiven? there is power in forgiveness.
Forgiveness gives you the power and energy to move on. You still can end the relationship and still love and trust again. You don't want to carry grudges with you, they will weigh you down in the new relationships. You need to get better
Always remember it wasn't your fault they did hurt you, it was a choice they made anyway, you are a consequence of their decisions. You should not let it depress you, face it like an eagle, fly away from the carcass (mess)
I admit it. thinking about it, i too do wish it was just a dream. Everyday the feeling of pain demises, i know i will look back and be thankful i gave it a second chance. I was living in a world where people make no mistakes. I was the person who would never ever forgive infidelity  i told my mum that often. I never gave people a chance to do mistakes. Am a perfectionist all round.
This experience has taught me patience, long suffering. It has taken me to the real world where wrongs are made rights.

We often resent an act without getting the facts

Well Said

We all need forgiveness and we all need to forgive.
We all have been hurt and feel a grudge would be the best revenge
We all feel we were intentionally wronged/betrayed
Never for a minute do we consider the other parties point of view
We get so judgmental that we forget how special the person is
WE always should deal with the issue and not let it affect our relationship
It was your and their fault, you both contributed
You both need a common ground,
You both need to be great listeners
You may hear what isn't being said
Forgiveness isnt forgetting
Forgiveness is forgiving thyself

Revenge

Revenge tells you you must not let go
Its a pride in its own way, worse after betrayal
We are motivated to act on the person other than the issue
We feel we are right, all the way
Revenge encourages self righteousness

When You Are In My Life

Everything feels right when you are around

A hurdle can be a sweet experience when we face it  together

Living becomes fun despite the odds

It hasnt been easy though , we been through the roughest times of our lives

We have been through hell and back

We have had what others would call, a nightmare

Getting to the mountain top wasn't easy, there are times i felt like giving up,

I run out of patience,

My trust bank  run dry

I didn't have a reason to hang on, anymore

I had had the best and ugly,

I had an experience of a lifetime

Then you broke my heart. l was in pieces

I did hurt, the pain was deep

I didn't get a reason to stay

All that was in my mind was moving on

You were better off  as a past

I was ok with the memories, atleast i thought

It felt better to negotiate back

At that time i knew i would meet someone better who maybe, would treat me good

Without a doubt i knew we were done

Your reasons did sound like excuses

Until i wore your shoe, i lived your day for a few seconds

Although i still feel you should made a different decision,  i will strive to find peace within me

I may never understand, i forgive you anyway

I may never forget, i forgive you anyway

When all that mattered was staying strong and focused, you did all the encouragement

Were it not for you, i would be singing a different song and dancing to a different tune

It is your resilience that we re still together

It was your encouragement that i stayed

Its your trust in me that we have come this far

You are our strength

I don't know what tomorrow holds, am better now, experienced to weather down any storm that comes my way.

When you are in my life, we can achieve the world

We are together to last,

We will travel far and wide, and tell

A story of our love.

Sometimes..

Sometimes you've got to pack all your hurts aches , and pain in a box, seal them and toss them out to a river where they can flow to down stream and pray they will disintegrate down stream.

Sometimes you ve got to sing a new song with fuller eyes

Sometimes you ve got to let loving rest just for a while

Sometimes you need no to trust again

Sometimes you need to face your fears and trust that gut feeling

Sometimes you need to sleep over to a friends place, you will learn and appreciate what you ve got

sometimes the grass may be greener on the other side of the fence
