forgive, forget, for what?
It’s amazing how people can turn the blind eye when they believe they are truly in love. Mistakes are easily forgiven. The wrongs are easily forgotten. What does that give anyone? A heap of heart ache.
I won’t lie; I’ve forgiven and forgotten before. But it’s not me I’m concern about at the moment. I’ve met someone who might be in the process of forgiving and forgetting. I’m afraid for him. I’m afraid that he may be loving too much. He may not see that the person he has trusted most has hurt him, and if she has hurt him before, she can do it again.
But how can you tell a friend to be careful? To not trust too much; to leave some room for disappointment?
I wish I could tell him: If she really loved you, she would have never thought about leaving you to begin with. It would have not been an option. With that, would you risk having her leave you again?
oh, how foolish we are.
