I as a LBS ask myself this how can we ever forgive someone who Truly broken me to the core. I trusted W with me with my Trios and W Did everything I protected my kids from.
I simply can't. I just don't know. How can a MLC do that. .
This will take some time and you can’t force it, you are still dealing with a lot of anger. I’m still working on this, I’ve forgiven but I have to keep thoughts from coming back and getting energy from time to time.
Have you read any of Anne Lamott’s work? I was going to suggest it to you before as I thought you might like it. One of the things she says about forgiveness is “not forgiving is like drinking rat poison and then waiting for the rat to die.”
