Humility

In celebration of the special day for fathers. I sent a text message to the father of my children. I’m not expecting him to say anything or appreciate it. for me being the father of my angels I’m thankful that he’s the one. I’m reaching out to him for I want him to be my friend because he’s the father of my children. I know it takes time to heal the wounds in our hearts and forgive each other. For now we need to be friends for the sake of the children but he’s not ready yet. I understand. Humility is not thinking less of yourself it is thinking of yourself less. Pride builds walls between people, humility builds bridges. Humility is the oil that smoothes and soothes relationships. It’s not easy to forgive him but past is past. After all, I already moved on. and I learned a lot. I know time will come we can be friends. I believe that once we recognize it season has passed and resolved reflexive anger, given up bargaining and healed our hurting hearts, “acceptance” takes care of the rest by relinquishing the relationship to its natural course. No more false expectation. no more pain. Only acceptance. Bitterness is the greatest barrier to friendships.
