Like if we forgive them we will be weak vulnerable open to more disappointment. maybe it's time to pray about what forgiveness really means.....sometimes I think i've forgiven someone...and maybe I do...but deep inside I don't really trust that person like I want/need to...and when it comes to very personal relationships with people who we can't or won't really trust to not hurt us...to love us....to be nice...then it just wreaks havoc on staying close. and then numbness sets in...and an attitude of indifference....and almost an acceptance of it all. and THEN when you realize you are also on the OTHER side of this whole scenario....such a responsibility to be kind, to turn the other cheek, to be GOOD for and to some people.
