Sometimes forgiveness doesnt serve you.
Sometimes forgiveness only serves the person holding the knife.
Healing is about doing what makes you feel good.
God & Man
If its forgiveness, if it feels right, then forgive.
If you cant forgive, then remember that you are under no obligation to pardon your executioner.
If it doesnt feel right, dont forgive.
God & Man

Some things dont deserve forgiveness.
Healing is about so muchmorethan forgiving and forgetting.
Some things shouldnt be forgotten either.

Learn from your heartache.

Sometimes healing isnt so much about forgetting as it is about letting go.
Healing is becoming who you are.
Healing is being reborn, even if its messy, even if you arent who you were before.
Sometimes healing is about reinventing yourself.
Sometimes youre able to put on your softest skin again.
Sometimes you just cant.
And thats okay too.
Its okay if youre something different than you were before your heartache.
Healing is about whats right for you.
Healing is all aboutyou.
Allow yourself to cry, to curse, to scream.
Let yourself fall apart.
Youll never heal if you dont.
Youll never heal and pick up the pieces if youve buried them too deep to reach.
There is no statute of limitations on healing or on pain.
But dont let yourself become consumed dwelling on your ache.
Remember the things that live outside of your skin.
Dig through the ruins and the darkness until you find something that reminds you of beauty again.
Immerse yourself in it.
Treat yourself like youre alive.
Healing is about having embraced your pain.
Healing is having scars and looking at them everyday and still being able to live your best life.
Wear them with pride.
