Why is it we tend to forget good words and good turns towards us but will hold on to the sad, bad, hurtful, angry ones forever?? Just nursing our hurt and letting it fester???
Sometimes over what really is not as big a deal now as it seemed then?
I have been pondering this the last few days.
I think some folks do not even realize they have hurt you or done anything wrong when it is simply the way they may have handled a given situation in a abrupt manner or just didn't realize what they said or did affected you in any way.
But who am I not to forgive and forget, like I am perfect and have never done anything I am now ashamed of in my life!!! Yeah Right!
I have lived a little while now, hope longer, but one thing I have learned is that we all change and mature as we go along, most of us for the good..;-) I think this is part of the "with age comes wisdom....thing I was told about!"

Forgiveness is healing to ourselves and others.
So I have decided from today on I am letting go of past hurts, forgiving myself and others to make room for more good times and loving feelings in my future!
How about you???? Deep breath...leeettt gooo.........See feels good already!!!
I know …I know.. what did this have to do with anything I normally have on this blog….well ME! Ha!!
