Forgiveness is not possible for everybody. The idea of having to forgive right now is not the truth. fact is, it often takes months and can take years for that to happen. Even then, you are not guaranteed the person will ever be able to do so. The reason is that some are too damaged by hurt and didn't have any closure or any love given to them to resolve the hurt.

Time helps but I also pray for miracles. There is a lot of hurt in my family and in the world. When we dwell on what happened, it keeps us stuck. IMO, usually the people that hurt others were also hurt in some way. I believe that we all eventually answer for our deeds unless we are able to realize the wrongs we have done. I know this is small consolation when the people who have hurt us seem to be living better than the people they hurt. If you are still suffering, I pray that you will have some kind of closure and more peace about things in your past.

i Hope we will all be able to Forgive each other. i agree with TunedOut about answering for our own deeds and that the people who hurt others may have been hurt in the past. i think Love is the key and solution. Sending many safe, warm hugs to ALL of you, @modestlychee6463, your Families, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!
