Heal The Hurts

Have you ever done or said something you later regretted? Sadly, the ones we hurt the most are usually the ones we love the most, the people who are closest to us. There are probably numerous things many of us would do-over if given the chance— the angry words spoken in haste, the ultimatum declared out of hurt. But because we are ashamed to let go, or perhaps because we are still hurting, we risk losing the joy of some of the most precious relationships around us. And in defeat, we con- clude that because we did the stupid thing or made the unkind remark, “It is what it is.” This thing can never be fixed. Or can it?
