Not Only Forgiving, But FORGETTING!
“There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.” -Josh Billings
Someone you love so dearly has done the unthinkable to you. In all the years that you have known and possibly grown up with her, you would never think that this person you’ve called your best friend, would treat you this way.
