Holding a grudge against someone who you feel has hurt you is a very human reaction, but anger and resentment can also be a heavy burden. Forgiveness can relieve your stress and allow you to move forward with your life.
Forgiving does not mean forgetting or condoning! Forgiveness is for the person who was perpetrated, not the perpetrator. It is saying, “I have already been offended against, I am going to let go of this so I don’t continue to be burdened by it.” You have already been tortured once, why continue letting this torture you by holding onto it with the erroneous belief that holding onto it is somehow hurting the other person.
