The Power of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is the act of pardoning an offender and releasing them from the obligation of punishment or payback. It's a choice that can be made even when the person who wronged you doesn't deserve it. Forgiveness doesn't excuse the offender's behavior but rather focuses on the victim's healing process. It's not forgetting the event, but rather letting go of the anger and resentment that can hold us back from living a fulfilling life. Forgiveness can be a difficult process, but it's also an empowering one that can lead to personal growth and a sense of peace.
There are different types of forgiveness, including:
