To people that made me feel less than I am:
The first thing I need you to know is that I forgive you. Though it may have taken a very long time, I did it.
Next, I have to honestly say that I feel bad for you. It is truly unfortunate that you were so insecure about yourself that you had to tear someone else down. Did tearing me now make you feel worth something? Did it make you any cooler? Did it make you any happier? Maybe, for a second, you became the person that everyone was interested in. Maybe, for a second, people believed that you knew something they didn't. But you know what, the second people found out the truth, you were right back to where you began. Next time you think about tearing someone down, think of what it did to you too, since you are clearly selfish anyways.
The funniest part was they didn't know the first thing about me. The only me they knew was the person that they were making up. They never got the chance to know me because they never made an effort. But that is okay; they didn't deserve to know the real me.
I am actually grateful you made me feel like a worthless person. You made me who I am today. Because of all you said my relationship with God became better than ever, and I honestly couldn't be more grateful. Psalm 31 is a cry to God for His protection from the people that spread lies and tear you down.
I prayed every day for you. I prayed that one day God would take all the hate in your heart and turn it into love. I prayed that one day you would realize what you had done didn't actually make you happy, it didn't actually make you any better of a person, and it didn't actually make people love you more. I prayed that you would never feel as low as you did when you had to take away everything from me to make you feel alive. I prayed that you NEVER made someone else feel as I did, because no one deserves that.
