Forgiveness

“What lie about forgiveness have I believed that’s kept me stuck?”

Being told I haven’t truly forgiven a person unless I forget what they did. Now in my mind, if I forget what you did that allows opportunity for it to be done again. If I forget the pattern and actions that lead to that moment, am I putting myself at risk of being hurt again the same way? I can forgive but I can’t forget. So have I truly forgiven these people? The method of forgiveness I grew up on came with a rug and I just don’t see me using that same rug that’s already covered enough mess. Like Miss Billionaire tell us all the time. It’s time to unlearn and relearn cause ain’t no way they out here forgetting what was done.
