To the ******* who tried to out me - I forgive you.
To the **** who thinks your cheap shots mean **** to me – I forgive you.
To the ex-husband who tried to berate me – I forgive you.
To the person I once called my friend, but no longer– I forgive you.
To the ones who would judge me by the words of others – I forgive you.
To the faceless cowards who would send insults only to be hurtful – I forgive you.
To the ******* that kidnapped, beat, and ***** me – I forgive you.
To the family who still accepts me regardless of what they’ve heard – I honor you.
To the friends who have stuck beside me – I thank you
To the ***** who has chosen that our friendship is worth it – I treasure you
And to the Daddy who spends his almost every waking moment making sure I know just how priceless, treasured, and adored I am – I love you.

I am truly learning that to dwell on the hurtful words of those who care nothing for you means giving them more power and position in your life than they are worth. Forgiveness is the most powerful weapon you can wield.
