I have pondered that quote. A number of times over. Been quite busy so have not dropped into the forum much. I do truly want to forgive her. I have yet to receive any true apology on her part which involved her A. I have received about 4 or 5 which were apologies about the way she is, who she is, how she is hurting confused. Why I moved the main story of my sitch over to MLC thread a while back. I know I can forgive at somepoint, I have in a far as I can without her giving me the components above. She may never, and if not, I will leave it in the state it is today in terms of forgiveness, which is to say, my hands are not on her throat.
Really beautiful out today, I am going to dive in now.
Don't get caught up in her apology. Honestly I got mine about 3 years ago. It was surreal. She called me out of nowhere started balling and apologized. I had moved on so long ago that I cut her off and told her that I firgave her a long time ago and had to go. Some people I jnow never got an apology. Forgiveness is about you as a person. I think it can actually be viewed as a milestone. Think about it. You can handle it.
Strength and Honor.
