Musicians have written about it for years. Forgiveness is a part of being human. Its been one of the hardest lessons for me to learn. Tugging your heart over to the side to make room for the ones that hurt you and continue to hurt you is not easy. Forgiving has been a word thrown around so much by others do we even really understand what it is to forgive?
As I get older I realize that some people are just driven a different way. There are some that feed off of hurting and some that I believe are too selfish to realize the things they do to others. Its easier to ask for forgiveness than permission right? What happens when you are stuck and don't want to forgive? Does that make you just as bad?
I am bigger than that. I believe if someone is genuine they would never intentionally hurt another and will take the time to make room in their own heart to tell you they are sorry. I believe that some people are and always will be immature also. I am not even sure they can help it. So while these people tell you stories and throw you daggers keep tugging your heart to the side and make room. I will keep smiling when I see you and keep forgiving, hoping that you don't realize what you are doing.
I never will forget seeing Metallica's video The Unforgiven . A small boy trapped in his own world and constantly torturing himself over the years thinking he was not worthy of forgiveness. Ask and give forgiveness today.
You may thank me for the jam...Until then
Keep Rockin
