There comes a point in everyones life where you have to stop blaming your problems, situations ect. on the past. Eventually we have to grow up and take responsibility for our actions. You can not blame your past, or people from your past for everything wrong, bad, hurtful in your life. I am not trying to make your life sitatuons sound small. I beleive there are people who have been hurt by family, friends, boyfriends, and girlfriends in ways I can not even imagine. But at the same time you ave to man up to your actions, to your life. People can hurt you, people will hurt you. No one is perfect you will get burned. And most times by the ones you love most. However you are going to need to forgive those people one day. One day you will need to make the choice to forgive that someone and to move on.

I see people all around me stay stuck in one place because they can not let go of something that happened to them in the past. As much as they try to change and move forward and attempt to leave it all behind, some how it stays stuck with them. They end up blaming there new hurt, pain, problems on what happened so long ago. Even I am a victim. I have been hurt, by one person. And I have been bitter, so bitter. I have forgiven this person but there were still days where I jumped a the chance to tear them down in public, and I have continued to jump at the chance to blame anything negative in my life on what they did to me. I have compared the people I love now to who that person was back then. It is not fair. Not fair to me, to people I love, or to God. I realized that I eventually had to forgive this person so much that I stopped blaming my future on them.

The hardest thing to do in life sometimes is forgive someone who has never said sorry to you for what they did. And hurts, it hurts so bad some days you dont want to get out of bed. But eventually you have to move on. I am not who I was 2 years ago. God has changed my life and he has made me realize I am beatiful because he made me, not because of how someone treats me. Again I am not saying it is easy, or that I have it all together. I know there are people around me with worse stories,and harder situations. I also know there is a God who is big enough to handle them. People are always going to let us down and hurt us. But God remains the same. Eventually we have to trust in God and ONLY God and we have to be who he created us to be. We have to forgive, we have to love, we have to start living and stop letting people from our past hold us in one ugly spot forever. I think it is the hardest and most beautiful thing we can practice, forgivness.
