“Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche
Why do people fight? Because it’s human nature. We can’t accept things if we don’t like them, so we fight them. Change comes, deal with it.
I made a huge mistake tonight… have you ever fought someone knowing no one will win? Before you even get into it… you know there’s no good outcomes, and you have the power to stop it right there before it even starts? But you don’t. You give into the monster. You practically jump straight into the abyss. Yeah… that’s what I did…
And I know this is something I cannot fix on my own. But I’ll be hanged if I don’t give it my best shot. Alone? Never. Not even possible… because as the old saying goes “It takes two to tango.” And both parties have to be willing to work toward a solution for anything to get fixed. But God gives us strength through Him to do great and mighty things. To perform miracles when we believe we can. And I need Him now or I may lose one of the dearest friendships I have ever had.
Father,
Give me the strength to forgive. Give me the wisdom to accept that I must forgive myself before I can rightfully forgive others. Give me hope for a brighter future. And give me the faith to put all I have and all I am into Your mighty hands.
Amen
