FORGIVNESS

We all have a story to tell some of hope and joy, others of sorrow and pain. we are like the beauty of the sea we leave prints in the sand memories that we reflex on to others. The longer i live the more stores i will have to tell, we all have them store of joy, pain, hope, love friendships,
this one is of the past, of a time a young woman thought she was in love.
This one is a little window into my memories. The poem of foot prints we all now it even if you aren't a Church goer you have seen it, it was the last thing i gave him the last night i saw him. i asked him when he was 6 months sober and with out a woman in his life to call me. He was my best friend i had known him form the age of 2yrs.
I had a broken love meter you see my roll model was a alcoholic. At 16 i started to dated my first husband we dated for 8 year before we married. What i though was love on his part wasn't, he was just a messed up kid like me. And although we tried it didn't work, he also had a broken meter. Earlier this year i got a letter from him 20 year form the time we split. The divorce took close to two years i wouldn't file he had to i prayed but God had another plan. This post is one of forgiveness see he wrote to ask for forgiveness. What to do what to do so i prayed about it. then i called him and asked him to forgive me. I was wrong i put up with it, i was not strong and that didn't help him grow as a person. Now the details are not the point so i will leave them out all i can say is it wasn't pretty we were both working off of broken memories. To my surprise he did call my family a few day's later to say sorry to my mom, he told her he is still learning thing form me we hadn't spoke in 20 years. I now God was caring me that day on the phone, i am at peace with my past. I now look at foot prints in a new ways not so much pain but more joy. Prayers answered i will still pray for him but it is a new prayer and yet the same, i pray i see him in haven. i hope you find my reflection as of a new print, as i count my blessing. talk soon s.
