Thank you @the-witty-waiter. Love your participation in this.
Forgiveness and letting go is not an easy thing. As a result, you will meet very few people who are able to do it. Well done for being on the journey. It gets easier as you persevere and then the day arrives when the old wound cannot be opened again and the person who hurt you have no power to do so again.
The freedom you gain makes the hard work worth it.
I've tried over the years but the person I'm having the hardest time with often does and says things that I disagree with and it's the same person with whom I am closest in my life. Catch 22
