Forgiveness and Peace at last :)

Posted November 24th, 2009 by Leigh

I’ve been meaning to write this post for some time but I just haven’t been up to it and only because I’ve been too tired and not really in the mood. A rather feeble excuse I guess some will say but it is the honest truth. However, it should have been written sometime last week – it is well over due.

As most of you are aware I was really taking strain about an e-mail I received in September / October. I was not able to forgive or forget. BUT I am happy to say that this has changed.

I received a really nice e-mail from “True Colours Revealed”, (I now hate that phrase). It was not your average sloppy letter of apology, it was a letter filled with sincerity, honesty, forgiveness and forgetting.

It really touched my heart and I am so grateful to have received it and read it and not just filed it somewhere in a folder.

I realized that the first e-mail was sent “in the heat of the moment”, yes a lot was said that really hurt but I guess a lot was said – that I probably needed to hear.

There is a better understanding between us now and I am happy to say that we have wiped the slate clean and we are now moving forward with positive attitudes, friendliness and most important “forgiveness”.

To have a heavy heart is awful, it is truly amazing what a difference “peace” does to your life.

    Thanks girls. It feels like a huge amount of weight has been lifted from my shoulders and I no longer have that awful feeling in the pit of my tum tum.
