Re: ~~~ Forgiveness ~~~
If by normal you mean if people do it, then yes, people do. If by normal you mean if it’s healthy, then no, it is not.
Even if they deserve the utmost hatred, do you deserve that much pain? Holding grudges and hating people hurts us more than it hurts others. It is very difficult when you hate someone to no end, to think about forgiving them. But forgive them to save yourself the pain. You don’t need more pain for something that happened in the past and is done with. Forgiving doesn’t mean you have them back in your life. They may not be worthy of your time and attention, which is fine. You don’t deserve the pain either.
It isn’t a quick process. But wanting to do that will make it happen eventually. And you will live knowing that you’re taking care of yourself.
