Forgiveness can be given when you think it can
Cause with every passing second comes a second chance
My roommate junior year of college was pretty much horrible. I was reminded of her today. I’m doing the 60 day photo challenge on facebook. Today was “something you wish you could forget.” My something is my ex-roommate. I was reminded of her again today while listening to this song. I honestly could not have written a better song for what I experienced with her. She lied about so much and hurt me so bad by the way she treated me, almost as if I wasn’t a person with feelings. So because I had time, and because all this was on my mind, I went back through my facebook messages to see if I could find any conversation that happened between us. I found some stuff. Stuff I remember saying, stuff I remember her saying. Of course, my memory was a little biased. In my mind, I was portrayed as more of a helpless victim than I really was. I was guilty of a lot of stuff too - stuff that I kinda forgot about. As I was reading that and praying today, I realized something. I “forgave” her a long time ago... but lately, I haven’t been acting like it. Sometimes, I stalk her facebook (I have no idea why). Turns out she’s going through the process of becoming an American citizen. I was hoping she’d fail. Real nice of me, right? Tonight my prayer is for her, cause we’re supposed to pray for our enemies, right?
