but what IF you had family, for example parents who have mistreated, abused you, molested, ect. or allowed other family or friends to do that to you?

i mean you are harboring resentment and hate and it feels gross. The hate and resentment everyone can FEEL it and it's disgusting.

So either get out, ICE them out, or forgive.



I never harbor resentment, nor feel it's disgusting. If a person abused me or my family, or mistreated, molested, etc ..... then they are cut off.

If they atone for their fuck ups, and hold themselves accountable for what they did, then they will be considered again. If they don't own what they did ... then I walk away from them, never to care about them again ... well, unless of course, they own up to what they did. Even still, there isn't forgiveness involved.

Still, what is the point in forgiving them?

If a person cannot carryon in their life happily without having to forgive others, in order to not feel resentment ... then they are pretty fucked up and are the real issue.

people, in general are going to feel resentment and hate, so if they have it in their minds, that forgiveness can free them from it, then so be it.

however if they are just fooling themselves and say they are going to forgive and then hold on to resentment, -- who are they fooling again??

I forget but don't really forgive, which is really the better route for all parties. I won't hold it against you outwardly, you'll think I've forgiven you, but I will never let you any more into my world than you already are after that point, and that's the true punishment, is isn't not forgiving someone, it's not letting them any closer.
ICE them out then?

Nah I keep them in my life, just no closer to me than they were before.
