Why Forgiving Isn't Forgetting

 Wise readers: 

Why is forgiving so hard? Probably because of myths about what forgiveness is.

Forgiveness isn’t:

*forgetting

*saying (or thinking) “it’s no big deal”

*living without boundaries, remaining vulnerable, or letting them do it again

*telling them that you forgave them.

It is reclaiming your peace by letting go of anger—while setting whatever boundaries you need to to be safe.

Here’s a how-to—science-approved, of course!
