The stranger that I will be referring to in this post will most likely never read this and accept my apology.
Anyways, I just want to express my feelings and thoughts on an ordeal that happened many months ago.
For confidentiality purposes, I will neither mention any names nor go into great detail about the ordeal.
To Stranger,
It did not matter how hurt I felt because it was wrong of me to direct my pain towards you.
I have no right to judge you because I do not know you and have never met you.
I should not have revealed private and personal information to your friends even though I did that out of goodwill.
For all those things I mentioned, I am sorry.
I wish you a circle of honest loving family and friends.
To Myself,
There is no need to feel extremely bad about your reaction towards hurtful people and events in your life because it is naturally human to become defensive.
There is no need to fill yourself with negativity when there's so much positivity in your life to treasure.
There is no need to compare yourself to others because you are beautiful just the way you are, imperfections and all.
Enrich yourself with the good and bad so that you have everlasting strong roots to secure yourself from harm.
Forgive, learn, and never forget.
