The Other F Word
Forgive.
Not because the way they treated you was okay but because you deserve to be free from the pain.
Forgive.
Not because they deserve your forgiveness but because you are LOVE at the very core of your being and should not have to carry the weight of what happened to you.
Be gentle with yourself and know that forgiveness happens in layers.
Especially when the wound is deep. Sometimes the full depth of the situation will hit so hard that you won’t be able to breathe. In that moment, when it feels like the weight will crush you, open. Open to the love within you. Open your heart. Dive into the wound. Feel the space and let the light enter in.
It was inexcusable. Forgive them anyway.
Recognise that it wasn’t about you. That people can only meet you as deeply as they’ve met themselves. Sometimes the light of your love will be too much for a person who does not feel worthy of that love. Do not let their wounds close you off from the seat of your power.
Do not close your heart in that moment. Open. Open even if it feels like it’s breaking you. Open to the love that you are.
This does not mean staying in a place where you are not seen, valued, loved or appreciated. It means holding on the power of the LOVE within you and walking away.
It means releasing the questions, the bitterness, the feeling of “not being enough” and knowing that you are enough.
It is in that Love, in that openness, in that soft, receptivity that your power lies. So let it hurt. Then let it go.
Forgive.
