Do what you feel in your heart

A couple days ago I posted asking about whether or not I should contact an ex of mine. The reason was I had some old pictures from a dance we attended years ago (14). My husband had suggested it because I was telling him how my ex’s mom never got any because they lived an hour away.

Some people said yes and other said it was crazy and disrespectful.

Well I contacted him and explained that I was just trying to be nice and respectful to his mom. Well he wrote me back and was grateful that I reached out. Thought it was super kind of me and he knew his mom would really appreciate it. We ended up talking and clearing the air on a lot of stuff. I guess he had a lot of guilt that he needed to get off his chest and say sorry for. He’s felt bad about a lot over the years.

I’m so glad I listened to my heart and showed him kindness. Not only did it help me but it also happened to help him. So what I’m saying is you just never know what’s in other people hearts. If he never responded I would have still felt fine with my decision.

Remember to show kindness even to those who we feel hurt us.
