Forgiveness is about being able to acknowledge and feel our emotions and then let them go. I was angry all these years for the abuse my family and I endured from my father. He was never going to apoplgize or admit that he did anything wrong. Forgivenss helped me move on. I am stronger for it. I have dealt with my anger and depression and learned to let it all go with the help of a therapist. I've cried many months,feelingl the pain that I have kept inside for decades. When I had no more tears left, I was ready for the next step. I felt some compassion for my father and forgave him on his death bed. I was helping myself heal. It's a process that took me several years. I'm still a work in progress and can get triggered by people who remind me of my father. Overall, I feel so much better and so do the loved ones around me. No longer am I a victim of my past. The author of this article seems very angry, I get it. It'a actually a good thing. Feel it and hopefully soon it will not conusme you, as it did me. Hoepfully, you will be able to free yourself and be happier. But everyone has their own way of dealing with their past. Wishing everyone a Shana Tovah and a speedy healing.
