Life Lesson: Forgiving

Tweet

For those who may have seen, I posted today about how someone betrayed me and dumped me just when work was badly needed. I reflected on things that happened and kept asking myself: What did I do to deserve such? I am not mad at the person for doing something like that - ditching me out of a project that I contributed much on and not getting paid. I have a lot of questions running through my mind. I am confused and weary. Weary to the fact that its food taken away from my plate and from my family. Somehow, being a Christian and a believer I am holding on. As they say everything happens for a reason. What and why, nobody knows. The more I let it sink in negatively, the more it burdens me emotionally. Forgiving means having to let go of someone for what he has done wrong. And with this, I grow and that maturity is something that proves i am a better man than the person who has done me wrong. It is senseless to forgive and not to forget because the burden and pain will drag you down. No matter who you are, no matter what you believe in, at the end of the day, it still goes down to you and how you handled things. Not the way you tried to pretend shrugging it off when in fact it still eats you. Today, I move on and let it go. So anyone of you reading this and still has a burden due to whatever was done to you, try to forgive. Forgive, learn lessons from the experience and move on.
