Untold Truth About "Forgive And Forget" 1

In life, we often hear the phrase "forgive and forget." It suggests that when someone wrongs us, we should forgive them and wipe the slate clean as if the hurt never happened.

However, this idea of forgiving and forgetting is a fallacy—a misleading belief.

Forgiveness is indeed a noble and healing act. It frees us from carrying the burden of anger and resentment. 

But forgetting is not always possible or even advisable. This process comes naturally, without been enforce on the victim. Most often, the space of time of the experience facilitates the process. However, the experiences sometimes strengthen and shape victims if properly managed. 

The lessons from past hurt/experiences help the individual grow and become a better version of themselves through forgiveness and letting go even without asking for it.

Though remembering or referencing the past does not demonstrate weakness, but may help to avoid similar situations in the future. It doesn't mean one dwell on the pain or seeks revenge. It means you acknowledge the harm and use it as a guide to set healthy boundaries.

True forgiveness takes time and effort. It requires understanding, empathy, and a willingness to let go of negative emotions. 

With that being said, it is still possible to grow and move forward without forgetting, though not advisable.

Let us embrace the power of forgiveness while cherishing the wisdom gained from the experiences for positive use.

It is through this balance that we can truly heal and live a more fulfilling life.
