Forgiveness

Sometimes people do shitty things. Maybe it's time to let them go, but it's often harder to let the pain of their hurtfulness go. Last year, I went through a pretty hard time before moving to China. I was hurt and blindsided. But I picked myself up and am a better person for it. I'm honestly grateful that it happened the way it did. I moved on and had bigger and better things to look forward to in my life. Last week, I had a dream and it was so clear to me that I had forgiven this person for good. I woke up feeling amazing. I didn't even know I was still holding onto any part of what happened last year, but somewhere in me, I was. And then after having that dream, I wasn't anymore. It felt liberating and as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. 

Forgive the shitty things that people do. Do it so that you no longer have to walk around with it weighing you down. If not for them, do it for yourself.
