The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

Forgiveness is the scent the violet sheds
on the heel that has just crushed it. |

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. I wonder if it is.. I wonder how many times we are expected to forgive the same thing over and over... I'm very forgiving and I have a hard time holding a grudge but there is a point where I walk awaY and just don't care anymore... |

I think that's part of it...part of the forgiving is also knowing when our forgiveness isn't about the other person(s) anymore....but for ourselves, that is when we walk away... |

Hopefully he's done with it now and all can go back to normal... I've decided to not bring it up, just let it go.. |

Ivee learned you can forgive in your heart, but its not always healthy to keep those people around.
Forgiveness is not holding someone in contempt. I like to forgive at a distance when nessasary. |

Actually, I find that forgiving someone is a serious and not always voluntary process. It requires more than either saying one is sorry, or than trying to "walk a mile in their shoes." It can take years of learning, experience, personal development, and actual work to enable yourself to forgive. Truly forgive. It is necessary though, before you can move on from how they hurt you, and for your soul to thus become free.

Forgiveness is overcoming your prejiduce and negative feelings and admitting, that positively reinforcing someone will also positively affects you as well. Loving someone loveable is the easiest to do. Loving someone you hate is the hardest and most difficult, but brings the the best feeling you can possibly have and realize that you don't really hate anyone - Jesus |

Forgiveness doesn't mean what they did was okay nor does it mean that you want to have them in your life. You may or your may not.
It means that you are no longer willing to carry the emotional charge of it. Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves to free us from the emotional bondage of the situation. |

Yea this sounds like some feel good psychobabble that is more about the fact that society doesn't hold most of the people being forgiven to the same standards of behavior they do their victims. I think too often forgiveness is just a fools endorsement. I can get over someone elses stupid selfishness without saying they get off the hook and it doesn't matter anymore. Some things you shouldn't just get to say sorry; lets for get all about it, and no real consequences. |
