“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the
attribute of the strong.” ~Mahatma Gandhi
For the longest time I carried around a lot of
anger towards people in my life. I’d been hurt by a people I trusted, and for a
long time I wanted to hurt them back. I carried around a bag of resentment,
anger and sadness, one that was a very heavy one to carry. I realize it makes
less juicy and interesting writing to talk so generally, but these stories
aren’t only mine to tell. So perhaps the kindest thing I can do both for them
and me is not retell the story, but instead create a new one: a story about
letting go.
