Past.

The past is the past but it will always hurt. Some things are easily forgotten.. some, however, are not. But it is possible. I've had my fair share of ups and downs, but i'm finally at a place in my life where none of these matter. I've learned how to forgive in these recent months and i have seen how truly precious this gift 'forgiveness' really is.
I have had some really, truly terrible things happen to me. Things i never, ever, in a million years thought i'd let slip through my fingers. But the truth is i did. And sometimes, loving or caring for someone just isn't enough. You just have to let them go. This one, oh boy, this one was tricky. Its not easy to say goodbye.. but it can be done. I would know. Anybody who really knows me knows that it can be done. Maybe not on your own terms, but you will eventually let go on your own terms.

In order for one to grow, one must first face trials. Good and bad but more noticeably the bad. I am so grateful for trials. I have become such a better person with the ones i've had to face. I know they were meant just for me. And this ties in to forgiveness. I've let go of the trial. I've let go of the hate, confusion, loss, brokenness i felt inside.. and i forgave. I hope they know that. It truly is past. The time to move on is well past due and i'm already there. :) So i guess i'll take a minute just to say thanks.. Thank you. You know who you are.
