START BUILDING YOUR BRIDGES.....

My first blog. I thought it would be fitting to use my first blog to herald my motto for the remainder of 2010 and going into 2011. BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT! This is really for the mature adult. I’m at a point in my life that I can no longer harbor on the past and the things, particularly the bad things that have happened to me. I say we should all work toward being able to forgive those who have done us harm and release the chains of guilt and shame that shackle us to the things we’ve done and may not be proud of. Most importantly, adults we need to find a way to forgive ourselves. We are human, by no means does that give permission to inflict pain and havoc on the lives of anyone; however we do have the right to make mistakes and more importantly be forgiven for them. We live in such an unforgiving and petty society and it’s time to make a difference by saying I’m going to learn to love my neighbor, respect myself, and forgive all those who have and would cause me pain. So again, BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT. It may take some time but once you’ve taken those first steps, which may seem like a mountain, you will be well on your way to a better way of life.
