Everybody makes mistakes, I certainly have made my fair share. I wonder often though what makes people think everything they do is "perfect" and that they are immune to mistakes? They do not or will not forgive others for the mistakes that are made.
An old friendship of mine is what made me think of this. The last time I saw this so-called friend, she made a comment about how I "completely screwed her". I sat astonished that she felt that way. I knew that I had done her wrong and I apologized several times without any response. What did I do that was so unforgivable? I will probably never know. This situation however made me realize that second chances need to be given, forgiveness is a gift that not everyone has or will receive. I don't want to be "that person". I am willing to admit my mistake, I will live my life free of selfishness, I will forgive.
