Thank you for the reminder. We are all only human, and need to keep in mind that fact. You are not God and you are in no position to ultimately judge. You can only control your own reactions.
It does no good to keep wounding yourself by revisiting an old hurt when that person likely doesn't even remember giving it to you. You don't have to let it happen again, but allowing the scar to heal slows and eventually stops the pain from oozing out.
Love your thoughts there, and yes we don't have to let anything happen and it is about allowing the time for scars to heal.
@shinypenny that is a very good point- sometimes people don't even know they have hurt you! Controlling our reactions I think is key to a happy life. It takes work and mastery though! Thank you for your comment!
Muy importante este artículo sobre el perdón.Este proceso es necesario no solo por el hecho de lado el resentimiento o la acción negativa provocada por el hecho tal que llevó a esa reacción. El perdón es más hacia uno mismo ,el dejar fluir y olvidar el hecho causante, y al que perdonamos dar una lección de amor.
Yes @nandi, that is an excellent point which I didn't even think about! We can say that forgiveness is more about battling yourself than it is the other person. Love is set free once we let go of resentment.
