Let’s embrace those who genuinely reform

IN life, the act of embracing those who would have genuinely reformed is easier said than done.

Many are skeptical when it comes to accepting back reformers who might have wronged them.

It’s normal for people to be cautious when accepting those who wronged them since it takes ages for them to heal.

The fear of being struck again complicates everything.

The act of forgiveness can be hard, especially when it involves close relatives, associates or friends that we used to dine and wine with.

This kind of betrayal is hard to take considering some of the finest moments you shared together before the fallout.

Many people pretend to have forgiven others while they are still hurting deep down their hearts.

It’s a fact that wronged parties will be overwhelmed with hurt and emotions which might take ages to heal.

However, other people, who can easily forget and forgive, still exist among us.

Forgiving others and embracing those who would have reformed is not an easy task in life.

This has been the passionate plea of dendera star Tryson Chimbetu, who turned into a monster, when he was still a drug addict.

After rehabilitation, with the help of the same people he used to demonise, Tryson appears to have come back to his senses.

Tryson’s handlers have been trying their best to make sure that the gifted composer and instrumentalist apologises to the people he wronged.

The crooner has been showing remorse after fighting his demons.

Many people believe he deserves another chance considering that age is still on his side.

An employer in his own right, Tryson is also a bread-winner who deserves another chance in life.

A role model in his own right, Tryson has realised his error and is now begging people to embrace him.

The bold move he took shows that he wants to be reintegrated with his kith and kin.

There is nothing wrong in life to accept back the people who might have wronged us in life, as is the case with Tryson.

Now that he has reformed, after weeks in rehabilitation, Tryson deserves our love.

Calling him all sorts of names would be a step backwards.

Now a sane and mature man, Tryson has publicly apologised for his actions when he was still fighting his demons.

As Zimbabweans, we should learn to embrace genuine reformers who deserve another chance in life.

Tryson’s case is a bit special in that he is an influencer.

It appears people tend to understand cases similar to Tryson’s fate when they happen to their close relatives or children.

As we accept those who would have genuinely reformed, we need to give them all the support to ensure they don’t only feel loved but are a part of us.

We don’t expect them to go back to their wayward behaviour which might have caused this fallout.

They need our love and support to ensure they don’t suffer a relapse of the same problem.
