Two of the most meaningful and greatest powers in life.
It seems that it’s always easier to forgive others, especially one’s that we love, than it is to forgive our selves. Such deep guilt lies within our own hearts, that is easily pulled to the surface by the mere words spoken from someone we love. The need to please, to see the smiles, or do what makes the one’s we care about the most, be happy, its probably the most difficult task of all. Why does this impossible task make us, the pleaser, feel so inadequate, insecure, and weak? Guilty, worthless, and like a failure. What could we have done different we wonder? If we could only start over, oh the things we would do different, but now, now we don’t have the time. Time, another great gift that is all too much taken for granted. Here we are and our life is more than half over, and we wonder how we got here so fast. We wonder if tomorrow even matters anymore. So much has been done, but there is so much left to do, but WHAT to do IS the greatest question, and even when we do it, will it be enough? Will it make a difference? Will we ever find what we seek? Will we ever, completely, make the one’s we love happy? What is this life for? If we are put here for a purpose, a journey, a task, that is “unknown” to us, will it l show itself when the time is right? And how do we know it? What if the time never comes…what if there isn’t enough time? Do we continue to wallow in this empty hollow of a shell we call a body, that is supposed to be so filled with life…..SHOULD be so filled with life….. but it’s just an empty space full of wishes, hopes, but helplessness that holds no actions, or at least not the right ones, not the right one’s in any other eyes…the eyes that matter……..Time….Forgiveness……and Love…….
