Forgiveness means doing the work necessary to process and understand the feelings of pain from an experience, allowing it to move through you, then coming out the other side ready to forgive but not forget.
🌼 Forgiveness is something you do for yourself.
Remember that forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to tell the other person that you forgive them.
🌼 You forgive to set yourself and your heart free, and this does not mean you have to re-establish a relationship.
🌼 You absolutely do not have to let them back into your life.
🌼 Forgiveness does not mean forgetting.
It also does not mean what happened was okay.
🌼Forgiveness sets you free from the trauma and the other person.
🌼 Forgiveness is for you not the other person.
🌼 Forgiveness gives you your power, and love for yourself and your life back
🌼 Forgiveness means you have all the teachings you need from the experience and now you’re living life fully alive and free.
(It’s ok to forgive people, and still deny them access to you.-R.H. Sin)
