I choose to forgive when things take too long for others because my life often gets in the way Sometimes I wander off on a tangent of activity or sometimes I am shoved And I can't breathe or slow down until my task is done and all I want to do next is rest Life can get busy, hectic, or troublesome in the blink of an eye and I need to hold on for dear life Forgiveness is a lot better for the soul than resentment or anger and I choose to forgive
