Yes! I did it!
No matter how much it hurt,
no matter how deep the scars are…
I realized that if we let go the stuffs from the past….
the wounds or scars don’t matter any more.

I have a future which I want to live as I envisioned it.
and I am NOT going to waste it for people who do not deserve it.

By forgiving them…. I forgive myself…. and I found peace. 4 months ago

I accepted that I can forgive I just had my own process. I read this and realized I am a forgiving person and it’s ok to have conditions on forgiveness 10 months ago

I’m still learning day by day how to forgive. Mostly forgive WHAT happened and yes sometimes the people. I have figured out that sadly a lot of times people wrong you they aren’t sorry about it and I’ve found it very hard to forgive someone who isn’t sorry but I have found that it is possible to forgive a situation and what they did. You have to find forgiveness to find peace with it and move on. I’ve since gotten married and my husband is amazing at helping me face things head on and find my peace with it. 18 months ago

I decided to forgive everyone who has ever hurt me whether they care about it or not. I’m sure I’ll often need to remind myself that I’ve forgiven everyone. It sounds like cutting through the gordian knot, I’ll see if my emotions will be able to follow my intentions or not. And I hope that with some practice it will work. (Presently I only feel nauseous about it yet.) I do hope that it will work in the long run. I would be a lot happier person if it worked. 21 months ago
