Nothing like forgiving and forgetting: forgiving the person and forgetting that he exists!
When you forgive, you don’t need to keep the people who hurt you in your life, let them go!
Forgiveness is a very personal decision you make for yourself. Forgiveness is not a gift you give to others, it is a gift to your heart. So, only you know what is going on in your heart and you decide to free yourself from the yoke of resentment, but at the same time you don’t know what is going on in the heart of the other, if they are really sorry and if they really plan to change.
Forgiveness does not expect anything in return, that is, at no time should you consider “I forgive him because I know he will change”. We must be clear that many people do not know how to receive forgiveness or how valuable it is. They will never change. In those cases, it is important that we know how to make a clean slate, but not to continue to maintain a relationship with these people, we need to open a new account to receive new people to help us evolve and nurture our soul.
Everyone deserves your forgiveness, but not your company
Every person deserves your forgiveness because you are human, you are not God to judge, and no matter how much damage has been done to you, you are in the same boat. Moreover, as we said, forgiveness frees you, it is a gift for your heart, your conscience and your inner peace.
You have probably asked yourself what is the point of forgiving a person if he is not going to reflect on what he did? In fact, there are people who do a lot of harm and in their little inner world believe that they have done nothing wrong. That’s why forgiveness is for ourselves, that way you get the person out of the place where he is rooted in your heart and that hurts you so much.
Walking away is a matter of survival. You cannot keep a person in your heart who you know will not change and will continue to hurt you. So, forgive, close the cycle in a healthy way and move on.
You can forgive many times, as many times as necessary, but if a person gives up on change it is better to get them out of your life. You will avoid many disappointments if you just forgive and let go. You do not have to force yourself to offer your friendship and your love to those who do not know how to value them. Go ahead, because an amazing path awaits you.
If you have a heart free of grudges, healthy and ready to love, you are sure to meet people who will fill your life with joy. New friends, new loves that will lead you to live much healthier and longer lasting relationships. Don’t wear yourself out in longer relationships where only you give your all, but rather open your heart to receive new people with affection and care.
And remember, in this world you will receive many “I’m sorry”, but few come from the bottom of the heart and only those manifest themselves with actions and not with words.
