Always Forgive

Summary: 

The act of forgiving is a sublime act. By forgiving others, we maintain our sense of freedom. Despite our past hurts and agonies, we should not lose sight of forgiveness because it a natural and magical healer.

How wonderful to know,
that humans can still forgive;
despite the hurt and agony,
of their childhood past.

A past that we can’t describe.

We know from the depths of our soul,
that life has been unfair in many ways,
be forgiving they say,
for we shall inherit the kingdom.

No relief or comfort can heal the trauma.

Trauma has a vivid memory,
even of things we try to repress.

But we need to tear down the shackles,
“be forgiving,” they say,
so you may have freedom;
freedom from the blows and attacks,
of miserable memories.

Sometimes, “be forgiving” is the only exit.
