"DO I HAVE TO FORGIVE YOU?" Why Forgiveness Is For You-Psychotherapy Crash Course
0Early upload for Monday!
Have a good week.
You may be asking yourself after reading the title: "do I have to forgive the person who hurt me?"
In this video, I discuss the process of forgiveness and offer an explanation of what forgiveness truly means.
"The essence of forgiveness
is being resilient when things
don't go the way you want—
to be at peace with “no,” be
at peace with what is, be at
peace with the vulnerability
inherent in human life.
Then you have to move
forward and live your
life without prejudice."
-Greater Good Science Center
"Psychologists generally define forgiveness as a conscious, deliberate decision to release feelings of resentment or vengeance toward a person or group who has harmed you, regardless of whether they actually deserve your forgiveness. ... Forgiveness does not mean forgetting, nor does it mean condoning or excusing offenses."
-Greater Good @ Berkley
"Forgiveness is the act of pardoning an offender. In the Bible, the Greek word translated “forgiveness” literally means “to let go,” as when a person does not demand payment for a debt. Jesus used this comparison when he taught his followers to pray: “Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is in debt to us.” (Luke 11:4) Likewise, in his parable of the unmerciful slave, Jesus equated forgiveness with canceling a debt.—Matthew 18:23-35."
