Feels Great

Today I did something that was long overdue. I wrote an apology letter.

I wronged someone months ago over things that I felt had been wronged by me. ( does that even make any sense?) I spoke words that I shouldn't have written. I offended and was offended by people I didn't even know. I held a grudge against this person for a long time and didn't care what happened to the person.

Funny thing is , eventually hatred will always eat you up inside. That was slowly happening to me. I knew I had done something wrong , I knew I had hurt someones feelings and I just didn't care. I knew I had to at least try to make things right , but the other half of me was too concerned that it would just make things worse. Today that changed.

Today I decided it was time to get over myself and my own petty worries and at least try. Sure they might not even read the letter I sent. They might read it and decide not to forgive me. They might respond with more hurtful words towards me. Today I realized that none of that even matters. At least I did what I believed was right and apologized. Which isn't an easy thing for me to do to begin with. I did the right thing and that in itself makes me feel great. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. That my friends is a beautiful thing.
