forgive my ex

accepting what he has done, who he is, and who he isn’t is as close to forgiveness as I can get

So maybe there is no such thing as forgiveness. Maybe forgetfulness is the same thing. Time is the panacea balm.

So it is Rosh Hashanah. Everyone has a week until Yom Kippur to apologize and make right the wrongs of last year. If you don’t do it or wait until after YK, God’s book closes on you and you are stuck with that on your soul forever. Or until next year, I’m not quite sure… Happy New Year!

this might be the time to fogive him. but what needs to be done other than utter the words? How does one make it something other than empty rhetoric? I think that I am more of a move one, under the rug type than forgiver. Forgive seems like such a heavily loaded word.

Well, on account that I am not Jewish, maybe I don’t have the Yom Kippur deadline…

Is there a checklist to walk through a forgiveness technique? Prefereably one that I could do without having to think about any of it or contact him. Maybe just a little flick of the wrist, mumble an incantation and stick a pin in a little doll I made to look like him?
