Forgiveness

You don't have to forgive them!
I'll say it again.
You don't have to forgive them.
You know the ones I mean.
The people in your family of origin who wounded you...
The people who made a cross for your back that you still carry today...
You have the right to be angry.
You have the right to want justice.
You have the right to want to be heard.
And what I know in my bones is that if you allow yourself to be angry...
and stop trying to make yourself forgive the unforgiveable...
You can begin to heal.
