Hey loves,
Today asks for me to write a letter to someone who has hurt me recently, well, to be honest, nobody has hurt me recently, so I don't have a letter to write. lol
As far as people that have hurt me in the past, well I won't waste much time on them. They're in the past, they will remain in the past. I'll be completely and utterly honest with you girls. When a person hurts me, a family member, a friend, a guy, whomever it may be. I'm quick to forgive, because resentment and anger towards other people won't get me anywhere. If I waste my time being angry, I'm only hurting myself.
Let's put it like this, I forgive, but I don't necessarily forget.
The friends that were toxic in my life, aren't my friends anymore. I forgive them for the things they did to hurt me, but I don't need to be hurt by them again. They're not my enemies, but they are no longer my friends.
The guys that hurt me in the past. I forgive them and in a way, I thank them. If they wouldn't have hurt me, I wouldn't be with the amazing guy that I'm with right now. I no longer talk to them, but if I was to run into one of them, I'd be happy to say Hi. No hard feelings here. :)
I try to keep myself as positive as possible. Sometimes it's hard, and I won't sit here and lie and say that I don't dwell on the past and the things that hurt me sometimes because I do, I'm only human.
But I truly don't like to spend much time on it. I've learned from my bf, that the best thing to do is just be happy and keep moving forward. :)
xoxo,

Great post, BBB! I skipped this one because I had absolutely no idea what to write. It was not applicable to me lol I do agree with you, though. There's no point in being resentful or holding a grudge. If someone has severely wronged me, I'll just cut them out of my life. I don't need to surround myself with negative people. I forgive, but don't forget as well. I believe in second chances because I know everyone makes mistakes, but I don't dish out thirds. A mistake is when you do something ONE time, so every time after that is not a mistake. Therefore, if people take their second chance for granted, and they hurt me again, they're out out of my life for good.
@Huda- Couldn't agree more with what you said BBB. Second chances I give, but if I've cut someone out of my life, it's because they've hurt me too many times. I have respect, loyalty, and love for the people in my life, and if someone doesn't have that for me, they're outta there. :)
I love your positivity! :)
@Vintage- Thanks love! Its always better to look on the bright side. :)
You have a great attitude girl. I so wish I was more like you lol I'm a total Bitter Betty but I really try not to be. Glad you have such a great outlook!
@Dinorah- Thanks love, but I don't always look at the bright side. If you ask the bf, he'll tell you that I can be a big "Bitter Betty" sometimes lol. I'm working on it. :)
