I'm not so sure that it was me that had the exposed nerve hit.
"Me thinks you have a skewed vision of forgiveness..."
Well, me thinks you seem a tad bit superior and judgemental in that statement.
However, you are entitled to your opinion of what forgiveness is. But - so am I.
Maybe, it looks different for me than you. I'm good with that.
I stand by what I have said about forgiveness.
My nerve ?
No, It didn't strike a nerve with me.
Although I will say that after reading this forum for over 6 years, there are certain "red flags" that I see when certain topics are brought up.
Patterns of response, etc.
As for being judgmental and superior ?
Well, I do apologize if that is how you felt.
Forgiveness does look very different for me. And maybe that is because I stand on the other side of the River from you, hoping to see you swim instead of sinking. And while that certainly is YOUR choice, you are posting on a public forum seeking advice/insight from people that are either swimming, or have swam that river before.
And if that makes my words seem "judgmental" or "superior" to you...?
That has never been the intention with any of my posts. What purpose would that serve in helping you heal ??
