You dont have to choose forgiveness.
You dont have to take the high road.
You dont have to pretend like everything is fine when youre dying inside.
Elijah Hiett
You dont have to sayI forgive youin order to avoid drama.
You dont have to accept poor treatment because you would rather suffer alongside them than live without them.
You dont have to put yourself through more hell.
You dont have to give them a second chance.
You dont have to give them your forgiveness.
You dont owe them anything, simply because they apologized.
And certainly not your heart.
Dont feel guilty about walking away if thats whats in your best interest.
Dont feel like youre a bad person for doing the healthiest thing for yourself.
Remember, you were not the one in the wrong here.
Their apology might not be genuine.
You get to choose whether they deserve to be an ongoing part of your future.
You dont have to choose one or another.
you might choose both.
You dont have to choose forgiveness.
You dont have to play nice.
Remember, youre not a bad person for walking away.
Youre astrongperson for walking away.
