DAY 4: SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO FORGIVE SOMEONE FOR
Among my responses for the 30 Days of Truth, today's will be the most confidential.
Only one unforgiven person comes to mind- -but I don't know if I would consider him/her absolutely unforgiven either. Most days I feel like I've forgiven completely. Time is the best healer. But then there are some days when I think again about the hurt and the loss I've experienced and
I return to anger.
It's not what this person did, but what this person didn't do that hurts so much. Knowing that this person had such an integral role in depicting such a finite act and knowing that this person chose not to help is what is so
hard to accept.
This person doesn't know how he/she affected me. This person doesn't know that he/she is the only person I have ever really hated. Though the hate doesn't remain, I can still remember how dark and hollow it felt to
hate so deeply.
And I don't think those feelings can ever be forgotten.
Forgiven, perhaps- -and I'm trying.
But never forgotten.
