Yeah…I was going to write something high-minded and profound on the subject of forgiveness, but after today—sometimes it really is just this simple.
You’re an asshole —and I forgive you.
It doesn’t mean that you need to overlook what that person did wrong.
It doesn’t mean it wasn’t a shitfest.
It doesn’t even mean they were completely wrong and you were completely right.
I’m pretty sure it takes a party of two to get a table at the shitfest—right?
Here’s what I do know for sure:
The object of our forgiveness may never change—but we can!
Carry on,
