over it

i use the term "you'll get over it" with much frequency, and don't realize that it isn't quite the same for everyone.

i know where i get it from now.

when discussing petty rivalries among family members, my dad told me about how he used to get kicked out of his house for months at a time, only to return and it seem as if nothing had happened.

i learned from him, and he learned from his dad, that forgiveness is easy.

you can and will get over it, whatever "it" may be.

unfortunately no one else seems to agree.


i wish some people would read this, because it is to them. they don't realize the hurt and confusion they're causing the next generation. petty. silly. embarrassing.
