Loaning

 From Flying Free with Natalie Hoffman

"If a person kept loaning money to someone who

never paid it back, this person has one of three 

choices.

One, keep willingly loaning the money and expect

to continue doing so forever, thereby letting the

negligent recipient happily grow in greed and

irresponsibility.

Or two, keep loaning the money with resentment 

in his or her heart, hoping for payback one day.

Or three, stop loaning the money, forgive the debt,

and tell the chronic money taker to either go get

free money somewhere else or go get a job.

When it comes to chronic abuse, the last option is

the wisest. Forgive the debt owed you, and then

stop investing your precious life in an abusive

relationship and get yourself to a place of 

emotional and spiritual safety."
