Prompt 33: The Perfect Present I would want the gift of forgiveness. It isn’t that I don’t have it already, because I do, but it’s only for the little things. I need forgiveness for much more serious situations. If someone does something really bad to me, I hold a grudge, and whenever I see them I just want to do something to them. I tend to get angry when I see someone who has done something to me or something to any of my family or friends. I just have this hatred building up inside of me, and it’s not good. I want to be a more forgiving person, because I shouldn’t hate anyone, but it is hard to forget what they did. Forgiveness will help me to move on, and to stop dwelling on the past, because if I can’t forgive the person, I can never be the same around them anymore or treat them the same. I am never going to make myself better by always remembering the past and what they did. Right now at this point there are so many wrong doings that I am holding onto because I can’t forgive the people that did it. I don’t like feeling this way, but they did something that went against my values, and to me it’s like killing someone. I mean why should I forgive them? They knew what they were doing, and yet they still continued to do it knowing the consequences that would follow after it. If I could get this gift of forgiveness it would help me so much. I could finally let go of all the hatred and anger inside of me and feel new all over again. I could even teach others in the future how to forgive too. If I could get this gift it would mean a lot to me, because I’ve been trying so long to learn how to forgive, but I just can’t seem to get myself to do it.
