Forgiving those that hurt you is for YOUR peace of mind. They don't need to know you forgave them, it can be done silently. You will feel free 🦋 #letitgo #forgiveness #forgiveothers #learningtoforgive #loveyourself #loveenoughtoforgive #lovewithoutforgiveness #forgivenesswithoutlove #bryantmcgill #bryanthmcgill https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn_Kdftg8G3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=brdl2obszqbi

We all harbor the wish to heal our emotional wounds. What exactly is forgiveneas?Forgiveness is not just saying "I forgive you." It is an active, conscious decision to let go of anger, resentment and bitterness, and to do so regardless of whether the object of anger seems worthy of being forgiven. . In fact, the moment you form a thought of forgiveness, the process of forgiveness will have already begun, Forgiveness calms stress levels, leading to improved health. As you clear your headspace of feelings of hostility, you begin to feel empathy, compassion, and sometimes even affection for the person whowronged you. #learningtoforgive #forgiveness #Thesecrettohealingthesoul #psychosomatic #disorder #meditation #healthymind (at Singapore)

I only wanted to have fun Learning to fly learning to run I let my heart decide the way When I was young Deep down I must have always known That this would be inevitable To earn my stripes I'd have to pay And bare my soul I know I'm not the only one Who regrets the things they've done Sometimes I just feel it's only me Who can't stand the reflection that they see I wish I could live a little more Look up to the sky not just the floor I feel like my life is flashing by And all I can do is watch and cry I miss the air I miss my friends I miss my mother I miss it when Life was a party to be thrown But that was a million years ago When I walk around all of the streets Were I grew up and found my feet They can't look me in the eye It's like they're scared of me I try to think of things to say Like a joke or a memory But they don't recognise me now In the light of day I know I'm not the only one Who regrets the things they've done Sometimes I just feel it's only me Who never became who they thought they'd be I wish I could live a little more Look up to the sky not just the floor I feel like my life is flashing by And all I can do is watch and cry I miss the air I miss my friends I miss my mother I miss it when Life was a party to be thrown But that was a million years ago A million years ago (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXm3Wo3XM3s)

Road to University Nationals Journal Entry 2: Counterproductive Behavior and Confessions (WARNING: SAPPY BULLSHIT AHEAD)

I'll just put this out there.  I don't drink as often as I used to, but last night, I went full fucking "rumspringer" (long navy story), and a full gallon of Hop, Skip and Go Naked later, I was two feet in the grave with my head barely above the ground long enough to take in the fresh air and start over again.  This is not the right way for me to relax and express myself.  

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. -Plato

The worst part is, what these people were doing was so against my own moral code, but letting it go was just as bad, as being the one perpetuating the violation.  If you let someone else just go about doing something you, yourself, consider wrong, then prepare yourself for a harsh truth and it is that you are just as ugly as the people you chastise for it.

What am I to do with this new reality that I created for myself, because I was weak for a moment, and now somebody's eyes haunt me?  

I tried to cure it from being incessantly closed off to people about how I really feel all the time, and it gets harder, and I found that the only moment I didn't feel the weight of guilt, was at the bottom of a bottle, or when I was training.  Basically, when I put myself into a position of pain, or recovery, I just didn't need to feel it anymore, but once the penance ended my fire walk started again.  

My anxiety is even worse in a crowd.  How would these people feel about me, if they knew what I saw, and what I could've done?  My back was always up against the wall, or I would be standing up, or outside.  It's the only way I feel safe.

Perhaps I'm just being melodramatic: this reason is why it's hard for me to connect with people, or keep a relationship, or show somebody what I actually feel for them.  

I could've been the antidote, but instead I became a toxin.

There you have it.  That is why I act the way I do.  That is why every word I speak is humorous or cynical.   I don't take anybody's problems too seriously, cause I know now, from experience, somebody else in the world is having a much worse time than you are.

I need to pick up the weights more, maybe get some counseling, and put down heavy drinking.  I'm sorry for this emotional, sappy, woe-is-me crap.  I just found a need to decompress.

Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own secrets, and takes its own punishment in silence. -Dorothy Dix

Forgiveness

Sometimes you have to learn to forgive.  It doesn't mean that you forget or that you've somehow managed to erase that part of your memory nor does it indicate that you have no emotions…it just means that the memories tied to that part of your life are no longer attached to the emotions, they no longer elicit emotional reactions…the string tying the two together gets severed and finally…you can just coexist. Thankful for the past, genuinely forgiving the past, and learning from the past to better your tomorrow.
