Forgive Yourself
We've all made mistakes. Big ones! Doozies!
Give yourself a break.
For what it's worth,
I forgive you.
I also give you permission to move on with your life.
With Your Life!
Make peace with your past!
Then you can walk unshackled toward the light.
And if you walk toward the sun.
You don't see your shadow.
That's why the windshield is bigger than the rear view mirror.
You're not saying what you did was right.
You're not saying it wasn't your fault.
You're just forgiving the younger,
more foolish you.
We can't move toward our bucket life with our past dragging us down.
