I watch people every day as they complain, cry, gossip, lie, and cheat. Let's be honest, we all do it. I do it... Not proud, just being honest. We don't have time to get used to these habits. Tell me, what good is complaining going to do? Is holding a grudge going to make things better?
Now, we've all been backstabbed before. It's a part of life, we call it "friends for a reason". The "reason" that these "friends" come into our lives is that these backstabbers teach us a lesson. What teenage girls have not yet understood is that after they've learned this lesson, they need to move on. There is no point in trying to get revenge on our backstabbers. If anything, we should be thanking them for teaching us a valuable lesson.
The bottom line is that us girls should learn that happiness will never come from grudges, lies, revenge. No. Happiness comes from forgiveness, laughter, friendship. No one wants to look back on their lives and realize that they wasted two years hating someone.
So, girls, forget your grudge against the girl that stole your ex-boyfriend. Forget about the time when your ex-best friend revealed your deepest darkest secret. Forget the rumors that some random person started a year ago. It's not going to matter in twenty years. I say rekindle the friendships, because the more friendships you have, the merrier. Don't waste life away being angry.
Be happy.
