This weekend my brother saw Voldebitch at the store she’s working in.
The Pooks and all the other Burning Man folks got back extremely late last night.
These two events, though seemingly unrelated, have brought a rather interesting topic to the table that I had touched on before. Do I forgive and forget what others have done to me? Would they forgive my trespasses, as I might forgive theirs?
The spiritual side of The Loop would like to think that forgiveness should be universal, and given without thought. But then I am reminded of the story of the snake. The snake I was referring to there is not the same snake here, but it’s funny I chose the snake metaphor, as it’s Voldebitch I am referring to here. Her actions were malice. She deliberately tried to hurt me. She was bitter, angry, and vindictive. Forgiveness here is not that easy, nor is the contact present enough for me to even worry about it.
The other cases are a bit more present, and promising. In one case I need to find the forgiveness within me for him, while the other I am hoping can find this forgiveness within himself for me. I want to talk to these people, and have for months if not years. Perhaps these current changes could make this more of a possibility. I’d like to think so, at least.
Oh, and fuck drama.
