Hello everyone
How are you all doing
It's so unfortunate many people seems to dwell in the past and by so doing they never move forward in life. Letting go of some certain things might be the way to solve some problems.
Like some people will say "it is easy to forgive but never easy to forget". I quite agree with you in this but I believe if you can you will.
Most times dwelling in the past will slow you down in achieving what you want. I remembered when I was betrayed by a very close friend, for so many years I have had the grudge within me, I refused to forgive him because I didn't expect what he did. He never called to apologize to me, I felt he has betrayed the trust I had in him. Calling would has eased things but No he didn't.
Years passed and we never communicated, he was once living in Lagos before he moved to another state. I took it upon myself that if he doesn't call to apologize or check up on me, I will not call neither will I forgive him. Most times thinking about the past and the nice moment we had together, I was tempted to call but I didn't, should I call it pride or what?.
When I approached a friend concerning the issue, he asked me if the person in particular knows that I'm angry at him and I said I'm not sure. Though after everything, I was advised to forgive him and move on with my life.
It's so painful when the person you trust so much betrays you, but on the other hand we need to let go of the past. I had to forgive him and ever since then I have been at peace with myself.
Trying to forgive someone might be hard to do but at the end when you might have done that, you will feel relieved and at peace with yourself.
Thanks for passing by
Nice write-up, it is always recommended to leave and let go or live and let go. Those two phrases could mean the same or different things but they both give the same rewards which is peace of mind and ultimate happiness.
Thanks for sharing your own comment. Have a nice day
Forgetting about the past for me is something that must be done even though it is not easy to do, with various beautiful memories that make us always dissolved in sadness in the past, but believe me when you can do that, you are one step ahead for a brighter future. good. very good topic to share so that everyone doesn't get carried away with the past
Thanks for stopping by
You have forgiven someone and felt peace―this is a nice personal experience you have shared.
Thank you
Such am amazing write-up, Though I get and understand all your point, but I'm a victim, and I still find it hard to get over the past, despite the fact that several years as past by.
Anyway, thanks for this masterpiece, I'll keep trying.
Try to let go of the past, you will see the difference when you do so.
Have a great day 😊
