Forgiveness and Vulnerability, oh my

Inspired by an article in Radiant Magazine about a woman who forgave her father after an affair, that produced a child, we tackle the process of forgiveness, according to our experience.

Exploring the depth of emotions, hang-ups, and struggles associated with the traumatic events that require forgiveness and being forgiven we realize that these moments bring us into a reality and truth about ourselves we wouldn’t have otherwise. It can bring us closer together and into a deeper,  more honest relationship, if we let it.

These traumatic events can also make us stuck in life unable to move on and realize our true purpose. Forgiveness is not for the other person, it is to bring peace and a healing to ourselves. We have to learn to let go, in the proper time.

As usual we have no answers, we’re just exploring the options.
