A Long Thought..pretty long forgiveness

Forgive the sinners. Yes, it's one of those things people won't do all the time. Some say only a pure heart can do it, but I guess limiting what's pure or not is not the reason for everyone not to forgive. Consider God gave us the same heart and mind that beats and think - there's no way that only few can do it. You and me - we are capable!

When I see people who can't forgive others, I knew they can't forgive themselves too. It's a sad scenario to look, it's like a virus that slowly kills how good we are, it's curable yet people desired not to try. They think it's ordinary that time will only tell when to forgive, it's about how big or small the mistakes are and then you can tell or estimate when you will have it. What's with the measurement nowadays that it always matters when you've done something good or bad? To think that everyone made mistakes, we hurt someone too(don't dare to say we don't once in a while!?), hell, I know measurements are very appreciated in accuracy of things and whatever that do with math and calculation - but geez it doesn't mean you always have to measure mistakes, love, friendship, and other aspects in life that gave us the reason to enjoy living. It's the border of calculations and measurement!

As we are in the ground of pain from betrayal, misfortune, attack, heartbreaks, etc.,we became mad in the world, we linger on things or people that might heal whatever pain we can't manage otherwise we often seeks revenge or even destroy who we are. Can you see something good here? Nothing. I know some things can't be done in a rush, because sometimes it's the reason why it ends in worse. Perhaps forgiving is not on that list, because I see people damaged by it everyday. The longer it takes the bigger the damage. We are scared of getting hurt by someone but unfortunately we make the same thing too.

People were used into giving 2-3 chances not to make it again or hurt them or you'll be kicked out in someone's life like a stranger pretending you don't know anything at all. Doesn't it make you look like a fool in that? Boy oh boy! No matter how you wish you got amnesia to lost all those memories you had together, I'm sorry you can't take it back. You always know that person and you'll always do no matter how you tell your brain not to. Silly for us sometimes after days, months or years when we finally learn to forgive and realize things were not bad as we thought before, it's not that serious or it's not worth to fight for then we come with this face shy and eager to make happy memories again when everything felt like it will never happen again. You swear not to talk, smile even see that person but here you are giving hugs and chatting how each other have been and what you missed in his/her life. Silly right? rather fascinating! After dictating to yourself you won't forgive and forever hate that person, you'll soon realize it's not the right thing to do.

Why can't we make it in a short period of time or just a day after the confession was made and admits that he/she was wrong and sorry? I can't blame them, right? It's what we usually do, it's what we see while growing. We sure don't appreciate "sorry" nowadays. I believe it's not just a word you would always say, it's a word that tells he/she knows he/she made mistakes and hurt you but was also hurt that he/she have done it to you or a realization of mistakes and a key for your forgiveness. A change for this idea is a good vote for me. If God can do it; we can definitely make it. There is no comparison between God and people capabilities with this matter but we have this heart that is limitless in loving. Love creates this.

Try it! It's a peace in mind, a good medicine for your heart, a food for your soul and warms you inside like loving someone. It's never too late for you to do it..it's always been there no matter how bad you think for yourself.
