Freedom of Forgiveness

This poem reflects on how forgiveness can give us much freedom.

Forgiveness is so hard for us

They hurt us

They left us

They lied to us

These are some the words

we might tell oursleves

and there is no doubt

we have a right to be angry

But for how long?

How long do we keep this

bitterness and hate?

How long do we deprive ourselves

of freedom and a chance to have

a joyful and peaceful life

Forgiveness is NOT forgetting

or saying that is alright they hurt us

It is freeing us to not let what happened 

 keep a hold on us

It is as if it keeps happening over and over in our mind

So today if we have a hatred for someone

we might think of a plan to start trying to forgive

Don't you think the the freedom would be wonderful?

This is a much needed and refreshing poem. I wish more people would read your words and think like you. What a better world we would all have if more thought like you.
