From The Eyes of... Everyone?

Entry 8

I have enough integrity to admit when I've done wrong. I can admit that I have done something I'm not proud of, I can admit to accusations that are true. But what does that do for me? For you? Another string of words would have been said to form a sentence that only some would believe. It doesn't matter what proof I have of the sincerity of my own words, when the proof resides in my own mind. Does me admitting to my sins give you a better peace in your mind or does it sit bitterly with you to hear the words you wanted to hear? Or didn't want to hear?

Sure there is no justification for the wrongs I've done, there are no excuses. A wrong is a wrong no matter what that wrong is, and sure I could entertain you with the idea that I want to make right what was wronged. But then that would make me sin again, as it would be a lie. See here's the thing, I did you a wrong, but in the end to me everything for all parties is going to work out to be right. Sure it sucks in the moment, but that's just life. Nothing worth having is ever easily gained. You have to fight in life for the things you want. Be that whatever it is to you. So though I have wronged you, I will not let it bother me. Let my wrong turn something into a right for you, that is the only way this world continues to spin. The only way we don't digress into chaos. Take my wrong and use it to make yourself stronger as I will do the same. Take a good long look in the past, and then leave it there. Because if you continue to look at the past and the bad things, your shadow is going to blot out the only brightness left for you. The future.
