I forgive not because I particularly want to
Not because I feel the person worthy
Not because the situation doesn’t bother me anymore
No
I forgive for the simple fact that it benefits my soul and my day to day living to forgive those that have wronged me
Because then I don’t have to harbor the hatred, anger or fear anymore
I can release all the emotions surrounding the circumstances and move on
Without that weighing me down
And sometimes it takes me a while
Sometimes a great while
But I always try to come around to it
For my own sake
And maybe too with the hope
no matter how slim it may be
That those I’ve transgressed against can also forgive me
