Something inside is screaming at me to be quiet
A vortex of words without meaning *just yet*
Whispering silence, the black hole of noise
So I’ll close the doors for a while to tame thoughts
Because I long to be still and ease my mind…
I’ll rest while I dream with open eyes
Time to go and let go
Have a quiet and beautiful weekend!
ps do you ever wonder what lies behind the doors of your mind?
A picture I took of beautiful doors… some time earlier this year
‘Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.’
If you have been wronged, you can choose:
• to be humble and forgive
or
• to be bitter and vengeful
I refuse to become bitter, I’ve seen what it does to people from a very close perspective -a maternal one- ever since I was a child so I learned my lesson at a young age. I had to literally take distance to be able to forgive after all those years and learn to love and communicate again with her. It’s not easy but we’re getting there slowly but surely…
These days when I see others breaking promises, betray my confidence, tell me lies, my first natural reaction is to be angry at the person. I made a decision some time ago to allow myself to be angry for a few and then to forgive so I’d be able to move on and not let it fester… But at times things get cloudy, thanks my friend for reminding me to be me and just ‘be’!
So today I turn to you and say:
Whatever has been done, although I don’t understand your reason(s), I don’t wish to carry the negativity that came with it as a result and I won’t dwell while I could use this energy in a much better way. You don’t know any better, it wasn’t personal, you were just playing your part responding to the signals I was giving out and for that I forgive you… and myself.
No commenting on this post, instead I’d ask you to use those minutes to contemplate…
