Happie! =)
After having it as a burden deep inside for months, despite the "Forgiveness" blog that i posted before, despite i learnt that anger and hatred might become the root of all kinds of illness; i wasn't able to understand the essence of "Forgiveness" in that piece of writing. i still felt the very heartache from time to time. i didn't know how to withdraw from the difficult incident.
However, things changed and it happened only in just a twist of mindset, in a milisecond. i was exactly like what the author said,
"Much has been said about the virtues of forgiveness, yet many today who need to forgive are unable or unwilling to do so. This is mainly due to the wrong understanding of what forgiveness is. Most people, when given a clearer understanding of what forgiveness is, become more willing to do so."
i misunderstood the meaning until someone who played an important role to me throughout this difficult times talked to me once again. this is the idea she brought me, "forgiveness is not about condoning the act of a bad guy of his responsibility for the action, but to courageously face the emotional injuries, to embrace them and then to eventually let them go, so you'll be happy again." i read this sentence again and again trying to internalise it. and guess it's the power of NOW that helped me to withdraw myself from the shit experience. i suddenly felt released. i can feel nothing when i see something that's related to it anymore. I've passed the acid test!
Life is now re-invigorated!
Lastly, and again...from Mahatma Gandhi:
"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong" i think it goes along well with my song title here, The Winner.
Cheers!!! =)
