Forgiveness

I did something today that was incredibly hard.  Something I didn’t think I would be able to do and took all the strength I had  in me to do….I forgave my rapist.  I needed to let go of the pain and hurt that still haunts me after so many years.  It was the hardest thing to do.  To say I forgive him for raping me.  Forgive him for taking what was not his.  By no means am I forgetting it or saying that by forgiving him it was somehow okay.  I just forgive him….and honestly I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
