Giving people a second chance…
When your trust is broken and you find yourself at the crossroads wondering what to do, how would you react to a request for a second chance?
There are several articles and case studies where we are advised against giving someone that second chance, for it is a chance you take upon yourself… to be run over one more time!!!
The bad news is, there is not a device that can detect what’s to come…
You would hope that the second chance you give is held in great regard and your trust then fortified like never before! But it is equally (if not more) likely that you end up crippled for your stupidity of allowing that second chance!!!
Any which way it ends up, you are displaying your magnanimity… your resilience… your character… your innocence… your ability to forgive…. your confidence in the human spirit… your firm faith that man is innately divine and pure….
Each one of those characteristics is truly Godly and they are in you!
If you were then proven right… it is a triumph of your belief and conviction!
If however, you end up seeing the dark side one more time… you know you were dealing with a lowly person who never belonged with you anyway!!!
Just be sure that you have the inner strength to not let your spirit fall apart and you do not have to spend too much time collecting and stitching broken pieces of your heart…
Hold your chin up… wear a smile… and move on!!!
Your head is held high regardless!!!
