I believe in kindness,
in justice,
and in truth.
I believe in forgiveness,
and mercy,
and grace.
I believe in second chances,
redemption,
and love.
But,
I also believe in accountability;
in forgiving
without forgetting.
I believe in lessons learned,
and hearts protected.
So,
here is my question:
where is the line drawn?
What warrants forgiveness
without action,
and what warrants forgiveness
with change?
How much,
is too much?
How far,
is too far?
I believe the answer is
only you can know
your limit;
only you can draw
your line.
So,
draw your line;
discover your limit,
and do not let others
touch it.
Stand strong for you,
stay firm for you.
And,
when it becomes difficult,
when you want to waver,
remember;
true change takes courage.
Have courage
in you.
