Life isn't about the times where life is easy but about the times when its so easy to give in and be hurt. Its the struggle between when you want to curl up and cry, and living. Its learning to forgive the people and things that hurt you not because life is fair or always right but because holding on makes you the victim. A part of healing is forgiving the people who left your life because there are two sides to every story and you don't always know theirs. It doesn't give you power it takes it away- power is in the choice to forgive, heal and start moving forward- one step at a time, for as long as it takes. Its about choosing to focus on your actions because you can't change other people- not if they don't want to change, you can only change yourself. You can teach them- try and get them to listen but in the end they have choose and sometimes all you can do is come to terms with the affect they had on your life.
