You’re Good

Throughout the conversation tonight, it did trigger a question to me…. How do we ever forgive for things that happened to us? What is the best way to deal with it, so it is having progress instead of stagnant? Is it more that can be done instead of just let time do the trick? And still be able to stand for what we truly believe…. For example, we are seeing more and more violence on the news. A lot of time we focus on remediation, protection, but how often do we try to address the root cause of it, like do we really know what is causing it? Could it be deeply rooted in the society too? Their own traumatic experiences? For whatever reasons may be, how often do we get to “hear” the other side of story? Just because something was done wrongly, does it mean we don’t need to hear the rest?

It’s true, it is never easy to walk the painful journey til the end, and no one would say it is wrong to pull out earlier. But I think for those who endured because of what they believe, it is another way and something beyond special… in the end, the sad story may have a better ending, a reason / way to mend a broken bridge, maybe even enough to find a new common ground for conflicts….

PS: Maybe this is where love truly comes in. Don’t we tolerate more to those we love? Don’t we give them more time and try to be more understanding? The trust / foundation built, it does mean something… that’s what I believe. Even for the worst case scenario, the possibility of finding good within, seems to be able to make it better…
