A situation
in your life has created a painful scenario. What took place has been hurtful
and wounding. Words were exchanged in
the heat of the moment and you came away feeling violated.

In
order to navigate this season toward a healthy conclusion you need to see this
event from a higher perspective. You have begun to prepare your defense to
alter how you will be remembered by those involved. That kind of defense never works
because in the end you will only appear defensive.

The
history of your life is more than this single painful event. Like a book that
is still being written the things that have taken place are only a few pages in
a single chapter. Your life, like a good novel, is a developing story. You have
the ability to write a different ending that will reflect a different history. Finish
writing this chapter of your life with words of forgiveness, hope and
reconciliation and this chapter will end with a narrative filled with beauty
and hope.
