    =======================

    You put the devil out, but you let him leave his bags.

    Never quite looked at it like this before...

    You got out of a bad relationship because it was bad,
    but you are still resentful and angry.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    the desire to spend on frivolous things.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You got out of a bad habit or addiction,
    but you still long to try it just one more time.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You said, I forgive you, but you can't seem to forget
    and have peace with that person.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You told your unequally yoked mate that it was over,
    but you still continue to call.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You got out of that horribly oppressive job, but you're still
    trying to sabotage the company after you've left.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You cut off the affair with that married man/woman,
    but you still lust after him/her.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You broke off your relationship with that hurtful, abusive
    person, but you are suspicious and distrusting of every new
    person you meet.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    You decided to let go of the past hurts from growing up in an
    unstable family environment, yet you believe you are unworthy of
    love from others, and you refuse to get attached to anyone.
    You let the devil leave his bags.

    When you put the devil out, please make sure he takes his bags.

  13. I wonder how many men relate to this... or if it's mainly a female thing.

  14. That's something to think about. I guess it all comes back to anger and sorrow and forgiveness. And that last one is harder to get through than the first two put together.
