Bit of an odd post this and I'm not quite sure why I feel absolutely compelled to post it, but it seemed important for me to say this.
You absolutely do not have to forgive someone who has wronged you.
Send them love and wish them healing, but you are allowed to accept that whatever they did to wrong your happened, was entirely their fault and they need to be held accountable for it.
Forgiving them lets them off the hook. You don't need to enable their behaviour by forgiving it. It's ok to remember they harmed you, but don't make the remembering part of your life, acknowledge it, accept that it happened and was awful, and (get help if needed to) move on from it.
You can be free by not forgiving someone, it's ok to cut them out of your life, be angry with them and get on with your life without their toxicity. 💚💚💚
If you feel that you want to forgive someone, that's great too, but it's absolutely optional.
Sorry, really needed to get that off my chest, it's not even relevant to where I am right now, but I felt it needed to be said, so there it is.
(Feel free to disagree with me too, I honestly have no problem with anyone differing in opinion, I just thought I'd put this out there as we are always told that we have to forgive and forget and I would love to help people understand that it's not necessary to heal.)
Much love as always, and even more love if this resonates with you, L ###xx 💚💚💚💚
