forgive an enemy

**This one is BY FAR the most difficult one for me to do...i will work on it!!**

 

most of you have probably seen these on my stream if you have me as a contact. i am choosing to add a few to sarah's flickr peeps group because i need to dig in deep and get to the bottom of some of these. maybe we all do...maybe ours are similar to someone elses??? as i stated, this one, "forgive an enemy" is a difficult one for me. i'm having a hard time even THINKING i can do this someday with one person in particular. and the strange thing is that i never thought to give this person the title of "enemy". however, i have heard from enough people and been to enough counseling to know that it doesn't help to carry a grudge, resentment, etc. BUT I CAN'T HELP IT!!! any insight would be appreciated!! :)

 

........a new flickr contact/friend i came across has this on one of her sets. i'm not sure if she composed it or if the excerpts are from various places. the bottom line is, i love it. i copied this down and haven't been able to get a lot of these words of advice out of my head. some of them seem so simple to me, while others seem nearly impossible at this time in my life. i decided i would take each phrase/challenge/word of wisdom and attach a piece of imagery to it. not sure they will all be photos, but imagery nevertheless. i need to conquer some of these things, that's for sure. so today begins my new project. thanks so much to Meike Vos, the fabulously talented and sweet flickr buddy i came across with this in one of her sets. i appreciate you more than you know lady!! :)
