Hello pretty angels in the house, it feel good to be back here again I hope you are doing perfectly fine? Our closeness was one which never expected the coming of anything to put asunder, but that asunder happened in just one day breaking those wall we have built around us for ages, I welcome you all to the second week of August happy Sunday you all, hope you are doing perfectly fine? For this wonderful week I would be participating on the contest topic which talks about forgiveness, tighten up as you read through.

Rosemary is my neighbor we have been childhood friends and the fact that we live in the same area, go to the same school together we became bestie, we did literally everything together going to church and all of those stuffs until issues crept in, there was a time we were struggling over a hairband which none of us decided to leave for the other person, we struggled over it to the extent that she started telling people in the area that I stole something from her, she even came to my house and started quarreling me on top of her voice just with the intention of making my mother come out to hear her.
That incident made her to stop talking to me that anytime we meet on the road and I greet her she would not answer, I don't what she told her mom that even her mom stopped answering my greetings, it was out of virtually nothing that a problem prompt out which on a normal it was almost nothing and that even made me to ask if all along she wanted to keep malice with me that she was just looking for an opportunity to bounce upon.
She made the whole situation worse with all the little little talk she did in the area making every other person to only associate with her and made me feel unwanted, we stopped talking for more than a year because she couldn't apologize I too who was on my right felt I am not suppose to since I am the victim in the whole situation, seeing her always gave a little jump in my heart making me feel uneasy atimes, normally I am not the kind of person who Keep malice with people if you offend me I would tell you at the spot and that would be all for me but letting go of all she didn't looked impossible for me that is why I was caged within not having that freedom anytime I see her because of the things she had done to me. This was just a mere friendship and I was feeling that way because we were not talking, it kept on going like that making my heart bitter towards her someone who once upon a time were besties who couldn't stay a day without talking to each other.
That incident made her had new friends and I wasn't on the list anymore I also had different friends but that didn't justify it we needed closure to get those big rocks from our mind which none of us was willing to accept. I would ascribe forgiveness to holding unto a snake and not letting it go because it sting has you and you think holding onto it would be the best punishment for it not knowing that the more you hold it is the more it would keep biting poison to your system, so is forgiveness to us holding it might seem like the right thing to do but it's actually the wrong thing because you are not only holding on to the person but always holding onto yourself too.
Imagine you and somebody are struggling to leave the door first and because of that struggle you both are blocking the way so is not forgiving someone like, you are stopping yourself from moving forward and also stopping that person, I took me a year plus to realize that I was still rotating in the same direction because I was holding on to what she did as my reason for not forgiving, when you choose to forgive even when you are the one that was offended it shows that you have understood life in a different aspect and that you are the bigger person in that situation.
You might be here today and gone tomorrow so be good with everyone around you and as you can make everyone around you happy because life is too short to be misused anyhow. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this contest and it's at this point that I would love to drop my pen, do have a lovely week ahead wonderful Ladies I still remain your favorite girl @graceze.
