Think of the most recent time you forgave someone, or someone forgave you. Briefly reflect on how you felt after the forgiveness was given, by you or someone else.
When I was younger, I was taught to “forgive and forget.” When someone apologized to me, I’d respond with, “It’s okay,” or “It’s fine,” and was expected to move on. But there’s a lot more to forgiveness.
The goal with forgiveness is to find peace within yourself.
