Beautiful post! I loved it! and I just did a workshop this weekend in which they made reference to this topic of forgiveness. The facilitator said that the art of forgiveness was not about freeing the other from what he had done, but rather to put love in that wound that was left open in us to get rid of that resentment, I found this vision of forgiveness beautiful.
I believe that many people close themselves to this process of forgiveness because they believe that with it they would be doing good to the one who caused them harm, and they do not see that they remain harboring that resentment that ends up being a poison for their soul.
I like to think about this vision of forgiveness that you bring us, and as I heard in this workshop “forgiveness is an act of love for oneself”.
Thank you for sharing your reflection with us ❤️
This is perfect. Those we forgive don't always even know or care if they are forgiven or not. They may not even know that their actions hurt anyone.
I love that this came near to the workshop you did. I often wonder if these things are brought to us when we most need them or are most ready to receive them
Right! Many times other people are not even interested in our forgiveness, so I think it makes more sense to do it for ourselves and empty our hearts of that negative influence.
Regarding the moment when it comes, I think there can be something of both assumptions, it comes at a time when you need it and when you are able to do it, or maybe it just keeps repeating that pattern in your life in different situations until you have the learning process 😊
