forgiving...again.

forgiveness is such a tough call. you want to do it, and you think u've done it. but in reality, it's a different story.

i don't know why it has to happen again. and i don't really like the fact that i have to deal with it one more time. it's creeping and floating around at the back of my head in the midst of all the busyness.

i thought that i have forgiven; it's done and gone. but i guess that forgiveness came out of a blind delusion, reality warped by a whole pile of emotions.
now that the veil is lifting, and i see the reality of what had happened, i'm beset with a whole new surge of anger, disgust, and bitterness. and a whole new process of forgiving that i have to plough through again.

to be honest, i hate it. i don't like the anger, but i can't seem to get past it. it's a freaking tension that haunts me all the time. with each prayer, it goes away. but it comes back again. and i feel like i'm just waiting for God to strike and take it away for good. swap my bullet-ridden heart for a brand new one!

sometimes i think about all the time that this whole thing has taken up. over a year of my life. and counting. even though i know that God has made a lot of good out of this mess, i can't help but want to kick myself for wasting such a long period of time torturing myself because of my poor decisions.

ok back to work. just needed to rant and get this out of my system.
:( not a good evening at all. bad throat, a slight fever, a throbbing head, and an uninspired mind.

oh no poor girl. i only just saw this. i cant possibly know how u feel 100% but i guess i do have a good idea. ultimately you will learn (or have learnt already) what is it to look out for in a guy. and whats the most impt quality he must first have... that is to know and love God. and even with Christian guys, things arent always so smooth. God never said pruning was an easy process. But it is indeed a permanent one, so long we stay close to God. Hugs my dear... sometimes the saying still remains true : what doesnt kill us makes us stronger :) I love you!!!!
