Don’t Forgive — Forgiveness Not Necessary

#Story 176 of my 365-day challenge!

Most advocate that you should forgive, but what if you are not ready to forgive? What if the person or event is so evil and harmful that if you forgive them, they will hurt you all over again?

Forgiveness necessitates that the person can return to your life so that life can move on. But some things are so heinous and unamendable that forgiveness does not seem possible, and you can not have that person in your life.

How can you move on without forgiving

So, I ask myself, how can I move on? Well, learn to accept what they have done. Manage your emotions and pain. What is done is done, and you cannot remove it. The pain and hurt you suffer cannot be taken away by anyone.

But we can manage our emotions within ourselves. Do things that allow you to relax, destress, and think clearly.

As time goes by, you can manage your feelings about that person or event. You can talk to others about how that person made you feel, and by talking, reflecting, and even keeping a journal, this may allow you to be present and live with positive emotions.

For surely, the pain and hurt we carry inside will only eat away at us day by day. The person who has hurt you continues to live their life, and you are caught in a trap of hatred, expending your energy on something, someone that may never show remorse or change.

Free yourself from negative emotions and become present

Free yourself from that emotion. How? Using your time to do things that bring out a different emotion in you, that help you bring out the joy of life, and that life has so many wonders that that person is stopping you from enjoying.

Face the fact that some things can never be forgiven. But we can learn to ensure they do not happen again.

Memories linger like a bad smell

Ah, memories — a bit like the remote control of your TV, aren’t they? So many channels and genres to flick through, sometimes leaving us lost in the sea of choices, wondering which one to settle on.

Memories, although they don’t vanish over time, tend to diminish. This leaves us with fewer of the emotions they once stirred within us. Feel how they hurt you, but may not remember the event or words. Some remember the event and feel the emotions it made them have.

Give them time to dissipate.

Give them time to fade away. By absorbing yourself in other activities, you will start to release those emotions.

So they do not press on our memories as hard as they have in the past. Make sure that you put things in place to make sure it does not happen again. Accept that it did happen and that you are dedicated to living in the present and not the past.

Remember, talk, write, communicate, live life for the present, and find ways to cope with the past. Remember you are you, when you are ready to forgive in the way that suits you is all that matters. There is no right way or wrong way!

Meditation is not just about sitting and humming

I’ve learned that meditation can take various forms — from talking, walking, exercising, dancing, painting, drawing, and listening to relaxing music to yoga, stretching, ice skating (random, but my favourite), and even just washing the dishes (a friend finds it therapeutic), and many more activities.

Give your form of meditation a go today.

Remember, it’s about positioning yourself in the present, focusing on your senses, and ‘hugging’ the beauty of life around you!
