The hardest thing for some,
is to accept themselves.
To see who they truly are,
to learn to love themselves.

To accept our own faults.
To find strength in the knowledge.
To forgive ourselves for the past.
To allow ourselves to heal, to move on.

Accepting is one of the first steps in a very long road.
The road to happiness with oneself is a hard one to follow.
You must face past hurts done to you, and forgive them.
To see what you've done, repent and release the guilt.

For some closure must be obtained from those others involved.
Those who were hurt or caused the hurt.
Forgiveness is hard to give, harder to accept.
To release the guilt, and forget the hate is just as hard.
