I agree w/ the author of the quote below:<br /><br />"Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future."<br /><br />"Forgiveness has nothing to do with forgetting...A wounded person cannot--indeed, should not--think that a faded memory can provide an expiation of the past. To forgive, one must remember the past, put it into perspective, and move beyond it. Without remembrance, no wound can be transcended."<br /><br />Beverly Flanigan - Forgiving The Unforgivable: Overcoming the Legacy of Intimate Wounds"Tresor De Beautehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02057086040086769877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284466976876209347.post-29558739109248454642010-04-30T10:39:23.220-04:002010-04-30T10:39:23.220-04:00I don't think it is so much about forgiving as...I don't think it is so much about forgiving as it is about forgetting. I think if we truly search our souls, we are never really able to forgive someone for the crimes/hurts committed to us. We are able to suppress/forget these offenses in order to move forward. <br /><br />M.G.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284466976876209347.post-39888737745954544992010-04-30T07:06:11.448-04:002010-04-30T07:06:11.448-04:00Mandela went to prison for 27 years.

One mistake we often do is NOT to acknowledge whatever feeling we may have whether it's resentment, hatred, hurt, pain or the like then we think that by putting up our good Christian (or good values) mask, it'll all go away magically. The first step to any great achievement is acknowledgment. If this was one of those A.U meetings (as in Anonymous Unforgivers), before the beginning of the session, we would each state this : "My name is [put your own name here] and I'm an unforgiver". That's the first step to healing, that's the first step to deliverance, that's the first step to freedom.Tresor De Beautehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02057086040086769877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284466976876209347.post-13070550720652833102010-04-29T11:55:45.271-04:002010-04-29T11:55:45.271-04:00I love this.

After reading this I thought about the one person who has hurt me recently and found that a part of me has forgiven them, but I was still carrying my makeshift healing with me which was fueled by anger. Even though I have not gotten over the anger, this post has made me realize that forgiving them sets me free.. and that's what I need right now. In a way, he has changed my future forever, I have learnt the importance of trust and the depth of my love. And I appreciate these two qualities differently. God only knows where I will end up with him, but at this point I know I'm ready to stare at the ugliness of the hurt in the face and call it by its name and leave it where it is as I look forward to a different future.<br />Thanks!V-noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284466976876209347.post-27327304914809754602010-04-28T16:58:45.423-04:002010-04-28T16:58:45.423-04:00I can not send you and email because I'm affra...I can not send you and email because I'm affraid you may curse.

It is for those people who are willing to confront their pain, accept themselves as permanently changed, and make difficult choices. Countless individuals are satisfied to go on resenting and hating people who wrong them. They stew in their own inner poisons and even contaminate those around them. Forgivers, on the other hand, are not content to be stuck in a quagmire. They reject the possibility that the rest of their lives will be determined by the unjust and injurious acts of another person."<br /><br />Gordon Dalbey - Letter to the Editor, The Christian Century (November 20-7, 1991)<br /><br />The last sentence of that quote is sthg that one must realize on their own. I'm a very proud person and as such it is inadmissible, unthinkable that my destiny can be in any way altered by a heinous act committed by someone.Tresor De Beautehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02057086040086769877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284466976876209347.post-23055912142042095972010-04-28T11:56:21.191-04:002010-04-28T11:56:21.191-04:00I think forgiving is to show strenght to the face ...I think forgiving is to show strenght to the face of weakness(revenge).
