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.
CT, a quote that I ran across that may apply for you,
“I never knew how strong I was until I had to forgive someone who wasn’t sorry, and accept an apology I never received.”
Also I have copied another post on forgiveness that may add to Mules post...it focuses on self forgiveness, which in turn may add more value to forgiving another...I have been seeking this path from the beginning, so it applies much to my journey. If you can find benefit then I am honored to share with you my friend.
I hope you are doing well and that your classes are progressing for you.
