So I'm realizing something. Forgiveness does not just consist in saying "I forgive you." Forgiveness does not mean being able to talk to the person again. Forgiveness does not mean forgetting that you were hurt. Forgiveness does not mean not hurting any more.
Forgiveness means caring about the person despite what they did. Forgiveness means being hurt but not blaming them anymore. Forgiveness means loving the person again. Sometimes that love is not enough to heal the relationship. But it is enough by itself.
