Kass, you are an absolute treasure to the blogging world. Maybe my own insecurities come from comparing my (sometimes feeble) attempts to your unstoppable creativity. Thank you many times over for doing what you do, exactly as you do it.
um, probably not. forgive, yes. continue, no. with that face, he's bound to do it again. i've never been much for that whipped puppy look. or am i just jaded?
No, I haven't and I will never forgive the sociopath who was my x because to do that would be to condone what terrible things he did to our family and is still trying to do. The "oh woe is me nothing is my fault" doesn't quite make it anymore. My therapist said you don't always have to "forgive" but don't let bitterness develop. I think we need to find the balance that works for us. Super interesting post...
Well, I can see I'm not the only commenter to muse on what you're doing to us, Kassie! I saw your post last night and I pondered. I looked again and wondered. I'm not as brilliant as you are. I don't quite have it figured out. However, yes, I could say it. I am an easy forgiver and I do it sincerely. I also believe humans are the most renewable resource and I believe we make changes in life. I don't wait for the other shoe to fall after someone has treated me badly. Yes, I get hurt by some. And I get amazed by others. It takes all kinds of nuts to make a box of chocolate. I'll keep looking for the ones I like best.
WV - cavede. Do you think I'll get one from my box of chocolates?
Cloris is very forgiving. Timothy is lucky to have her.

ReplyDeleteor am i just jaded?
Forgiveness is a gift, on all counts.
ReplyDeletePS: This is a reminder, I need to close a few books once in awhile and watch a few more movies...

There's a saying:
ReplyDelete"Forgive others often. Yourself never."
I pondercate upon that often.
Depends on the person, depends on he wrong...

I just love the way you think, Kass. Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves and not the other person. Have a great weekend my friend.
ReplyDeleteI'd send him packing. But, I'm a hardass. And, I'm alone. LOL! What have we learned??? :oP
ReplyDeleteOh this is so wonderful!! But for the record, heck no! He would know better than come over in the first place.
