**We must choose to forgive. Its not something we learn to do or process over time.
Forgiveness is a choice and until we make that choice, healing does not begin.**
You are so right. There are several ways to go about this, but we have to learn it.
I always taught my children to say (rather than I’m sorry.) “Please forgive me.” I don’t think it was lost in their upbringing.
We as adults might do well to mimic that verbage also.
I agree with you completely.
To say we have to “learn” to forgive delays having to take responsibility for choosing not to.
