Gift return

sorenbarrett

Many people can hold anger
Few can let it go
Forgiveness is a gift for the giver
Giving away love never made anyone poor
Returning this gift never hurt anyone's feelings

    Human kindness, empathy, compassion and those who show it rarely even need it back as it is done without thought so that's why it works as they don't expect it, they are unselfish souls. as usual your poetry is beautiful and always worth gold. 🌹 πŸ’œ

    • Katie B.

      This is powerful and full of truth. We offer forgiveness and the gift is ours in return.
      Such an important life lesson. We do so often hang on to the anger. Letting it go
      is freedom. Have a fantastic weekend.

        Beautiful! Over the years I’ve learned that to forgive is to forego the insurmountable weight of offence πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™πŸ»

            Powerful words. Your poem deals with emotional resilience, the nature of forgiveness, and the transformative power of love. Your teaching helps readers to reflect on their experiences with anger and forgiveness, encouraging a positive outlook on interpersonal relationships.

            Kindness never hurt anyone. Wonderful poem Soren.

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Soren, this comes through with a quiet kind of clarity…no extra weight, just truth laid out plainly. That idea that forgiveness gives something back to the one offering it really anchors the whole piece. It’s simple, but it sticks...and sticks well. Beautifully done, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
