can it ever be the same?

as the three of you that follow this know i am an avid jerry springer/maury watcher....partly due to my "stay at home mom" status and partly becuase i love to see the morons on there doing their thing...whatever that may be...

but i have to ask...can things ever be the same after one feels "betrayed"?  can you ever go back to the way it was before the betrayal?  and if you can how do you get passed it without feeling totally foolish for the rest of your life?

i honestly have to say that forgivness is one of the best things i have discovered along the way of life, but then who desereves it?  those who havent harmed you bad enough to scar you?  an unfaithful lover?  a best friend who "didnt mean too"?  i think that it is super easy to "say" you would or wouldnt but until you are put in that situation you will never know.....

i offer forgivness to many, and i turn my back on few....the few that have my ass staring at them know who they are and why...there are many things i deem unforgivable in my book:

    1. stealing
     2.  cheating
       3.  harming me or my family
         4. dishonesty (some can be forgivin)

people can talk all day long about me and i really over the years have developed a rough exterior that i dont care anymore....there are some that i care for more than i should probably and they can do what they want and i still will look the other way...

so sit and think today...what is your breaking point?  bottom line?  what is it that can make you say "no more..." and finally walk away?

i still believe in man kind to some extent as a good thing...there are so many out there that are gross, nasty, lieing, back stabbing, just horrible people and those are the ones that get no love or forgiveness from me...lately with all the crap that has hit the fan in this house i really am starting to just shut it all out...i dont want to but damn how much more can we take?  i understand there is a cosmic balance in life and todd , the kids, and i have it really good...so when the balance comes in it has to be really bad....now i will sit and wait for the good to come back into sequence

i hope everything is forgiven and we can all go back to normal....
