You can forgive someone who may not "deserve" it or even care. You can forgive someone, and they don't even know it.
It's a choice you make for you. It is something that doesn't change. Once you decide to forgive someone, you move forward past the wrong.
Isn't this the Christian, Dr. Phil, Oprah, classic explanation of trust and forgiveness??
So, someone hits me over the head again and again and again. I can forgive because the person wasn't breastfed or whatever. How can I trust that person NOT to hit me over the head again? Without any actions to prove to me they have changed?
Don't get it. I just don't get it.
If I hold onto the anger, I will hurt myself. Makes sense. Forgiveness is necessary to move forward with my life. But, isn't trust completely different?
