SBJ and Andrew,

Buckets of cold water are always welcome but this time around I think I’m pretty balanced in my perspective and not getting too excited about the positive signs which is why I balanced them with the negative ones.

Mach1 and Devvo,

I hear what you are saying. It only takes 1 to forgive. It takes 2 to reconcile. You can forgive a dead person or someone you will never see again. I have more work to do. I’m still hurt. I’m still angry. I still feel betrayed. Less so than before? Yes. Better with time? Yes. So what does it mean to forgive the one who doesn’t ask for forgiveness? Unilateral, unconditional love, right? Forgive them, they know not what they do? Yes, more work to do. And Devvo, can I be in a forever R with one who never asks for forgiveness or shows remorse? I don’t know.
