In my previous post, we talked about pampering or giving a treat for ourselves this holiday season. We also talked about our wishes and shared our greetings, we even discussed about how to save money when this seasons come.
Few days ago, misunderstanding between me and my elder sister made us treat each other so cold. We don't talk anymore, we don't look at each other even if we work together. We don't share food while eating lunch in one place, unlike before. It hurts me a lot, and I know that she felt that way too. But our ego was so high that time and no one wants to ask for forgiveness. I love my sister so much, not because she is my sister, we're best of friends too. After that misunderstanding I don't feel good and not comfortable being with her, but how long we're going to treat each other like this? If you're going to ask about what, how or who's fault it is, all I knew is she was wrong, but because she is older than me, she can't even say sorry for what happened? Is that right? Anyway, because I love her and I can't take this problem for long. I did the first move, I sent her message before I start doing this post, my message goes like this, "how are you? why you did not work yesterday? I'm sorry for what happened two days ago, I don't want us to be like this, and I can't stay another day not talking to you, I'm so sorry".. and she sent back "I'm sorry too, you know that I can't stay that way too, that's why I did not work yesterday" .. my tears begun to fall but my heart feels great after we exchanged forgiveness through phone. Nothing is greater than sharing our love and forgiveness. To err is human but to forgive is to divine, I truly believe with this. Forgiveness is one precious gift that we can't exchange for money.
Now, I can say I'm ready to celebrate yuletide season!.. My heart was free from anger because of forgiveness, a precious gift from God that I have in my heart now. Let's all celebrate this season with open heart and positive outlook for tomorrow! :) So, are you ready to celebrate the Yuletide Season?
Happy Holidays !!

Hi_D
What a touching post Ros - I'm SO glad you and your sister made up!! And Merry Christmas to you too!! :)
ReplyDeletegreat point here Sagittarian. forgiving, yes it is one of the keys to make this world a better place. how i wish more would come , read and practise this in their daily life :)
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing this great post !
That was a good move to make. I am sure it took courage and humility to ask for forgiveness.
ReplyDeleteWell, it was yet another example of your magnanimity and large heartedness to ask for forgiveness even though you were not at fault. I appreciate it . I remember the name of a drama written by Oscar Wilde- 'She stoops to conquer' .
ReplyDeleteSuch a great post.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear that you were the better person to forgive and sort things out woth your sister. Me, on the other hand, well, we won't go there.
Thank you for sharing and merry christmas.
We share the same story Sis Dang, remember the trouble with had with my brother, even if I know that I was right that time but before I went home, I asked forgiveness to him personally, because I know even if he was really wrong, he would find it hard to ask sorry so I did to clear my mind, I don't want to hold negative feelings inside for long because it will make me weak and exhausted. Thank you for sharing this Sis, and I am so happy that you and your sister is going fine now! We are both excited to celebrated Christmas and New year! Happy holidays! :)

Hello Sis, I am back here... that is so true, we have to let go the things that will give our life a negative impact, sometimes being human makes it hard to let go and forgive but eventually we will find the willingness to do what will make us life a happier life...

Hi Sagittarian! Thank you for stopping by my blog. You always brighten my day with your comments. I hope you had a wonderful and blessed Christmas! May God rain His blessings down upon you and your family even more in the coming year.
ReplyDeleteWe must always remember forgiveness is for "all seasons", as God will not forgive those who don't forgive others according to Matthew 6:15--"If you forgive NOT men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive you your trespasses. Luke 6:37 says ...condemn not and ye shall not be condemned, forgive and ye shall be forgiven. That was a very hard lesson for me to learn, but it finally sunk in.
God Bless,
PJ
@Pj,
ReplyDeleteHi, thank you too for coming over and delighted me with your nice words that comes from God. Thank you so much PJ,:) And it's true, forgiveness should be at all season not just for this season. And I've learned it too, because of HIM.
God bless you too PJ, have a wonderful year ahead! :)
actually forgiving someone who hurt as badly or to someone who did something to put us on pain will free us from misery and this is a good taught you share on this season... thank you so much for sharing...
ReplyDelete@ Will of Heart,
ReplyDeleteThank you, you're right, after sharing forgiveness you will feel great and will help us lessen our misery in life. :) Thank you for dropping by! :) Happy holiday! :)
