The Poem:
It’s a warm wind
But it stings
As kids we called it “feel good hurty”
Cause you’ve felt it
Like the waves feel each other
The loss
You can never go back
But you stared it in the face
Rolled the sand between your fingers
Then chose to let it fall through
~Kayla Cornwell
Inspiration:
Part of the Forgiveness Collection, this piece captures the open freedom of true forgiveness, and the importance of grieving your losses before you forgive. Inspired by many moments of sitting on different northern California beaches listing, processing, feeling and grieving my losses from hurts and traumas I hadn't processed from childhood and recent years.
My Story:
I had the wrong idea about forgiveness my whole life. In fact, I thought I was the best forgiver on the planet! I could move on from the pain so quick you wouldn’t believe it! I thought I wasn’t bothered, and didn’t struggle with resentment and all the other fruits of unforgiveness. But really all I was doing was stuffing it. Stuffing the pain, stuffing the grief, stuffing the anger, and living with my head in the clouds because I “forgave.”
Instead, I’ve learned that true forgiveness can only be had if you acknowledge and list the harm and losses that the other person, institution, group etc. has caused you.
