Forgiveness from "summary" of Drama Free by Nedra Glover Tawwab
Forgiveness is not about forgetting or excusing harmful behavior. It is not about being weak or being a doormat. Forgiveness is about releasing the hold that resentment and anger have on you. It is about freeing yourself from the negative emotions that keep you stuck in the past. Forgiveness is a process, not a one-time event. It takes time and effort to work through the hurt and pain caused by someone else's actions. It involves acknowledging the hurt, processing the emotions, and making a conscious decision to let go of the anger and resentment. Forgiveness does not mean that you have to reconcile with the person who hurt you. It does not mean that you have to continue a relationship with them. It simply means that you are choosing to release the negative emotions that are holding you back. Forgiveness is a gift that you give yourself. When you forgive, you are choosing to take control of your own emotions and reactions. You are choosing to let go of the past and move forward with your life. Remember, forgiveness is not about the other person. It is about you and your healing journey. It is about reclaiming your power and choosing to live a drama-free life.
