Think Again

Forgive and love

There are so many times in my life where I tried to love myself, but I could not. I failed to love myself because I was not me during these times. I was not who I really am. I was the opposite of me. I was what I hated, so I hated myself. What I hate, is what everyone hates. Everyone hates pain, misunderstandings, selfishness, sadness, loneliness, anger, and everything that can never be called love.

I hate myself when I cause pain to others. I hate myself when I am not who I am supposed to be. Because of the pain I cause to myself, I want to ask you a favor. This favor is to think again, to forgive yourselves, to start again, and to love again even when it seems hard because love is the only cure for any wound.
