It took me a long time to understand,
That true forgiveness comes by, from remembering my past.

To forgive those that have hurt you, and become their friend,
Means, that you are the stronger one, the one who will last, till the end.

To be forgiving, is not weak,
Nor does it mean you are or have to be, humble and meek.

It's love for the right things that you value within,
Because you know, each time you forgive, you become oh so much stronger, deep within.

So how can you forgive and release yourself?
From the pain that others have caused?

Easy.
By remembering,to others, what you have also done.

Eh? Que? I hear you say, but I have not done what others have said!

Haven't you?

Are you really sure?

Noone is perfect, not you nor I,
But in bitterness I REFUSE to die!

I will die with dignity, with LOVE in my heart,
Not hatred and bitterness that can tear me apart.

Don't you want to be strong, and release you? From all the hatred that binds you?

Why live in anger when u can live in love?
