Life is not so difficult as you might believe; have a friend? Cherish the friend, as you are not one who walks through life alone. Do you want to debate, fight, hate?
Do so, but then stand back from yourself in the middle of a room, alone. Think of something you have done. Have you ever stolen anything? Have you envied someone? Have you ever made a snide remark about someone in your mind?
What if you said something about someone and they didn't forgive you? What if that spread to everyone that you know? Are you so perfect that you never make a mistake? I truly hope you are, because God forbid you do make a mistake and find that the friends that you cherish have turned their backs on you.
As I live and breathe, I forgive trangressions against me. Why? Is there anything so terrible that you cannot forgive? If you're answer is yes, think about one statement that I am going to make.
What if it were you?
I have roomates that have done terrible things against me. One of my roomates has stolen money from me, but worse than that, she stole my trust in her. If she had but asked, I would have given her the money gladly. She has pretended to be sick so she didn't have to look for a job, and my fiance and I ended up supporting her for two months. Why do I forgive her?
Because when I think of my own sins, I can do no less. I am not perfect, nor is she. We make mistakes, we harm others with our mistakes, we destroy trust with our mistakes. What if no one in the world forgave anyone for anything? Is that a world you want to live in?
Just a few thoughts of mine, something I have been through with my roomate, and a few thoughts I hope might help others find a little forgiveness in their hearts for others. It's not so hard, really, saying those three words. I forgive you. What's harder is thinking of all the people that would never forgive me for the mistakes I've made if the world was so unforgiving...
