RE: Mastering The Art Of Forgiveness
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
This is a lovely post Malopie but the part where you said “Forgiving and Forgetting are the same thing” got me thinking though because I feel ‘Forgetting is forgiving but Forgiving isn’t forgetting’
You can forgive and not forget but for you to forget, you have to not think about it again, which simply means forgiving.
Don’t know if you’re still with me here or already lost like I would be if I was the one reading my comment. 😅

You got yourself lost there. To forgive is to forget, not the other way around. Because they are numerous things we forget about in life that has nothing to do with betrayal or broken trust, just random forgetfulness, example, forgetting what you read before entering exams hall. 🙂
That said, you could liken the two words but only in this context because they are meant to work together. That's why I made mention that there's no forgiveness without forgetting, so the only way to truly forgive is to get distracted and embrace growth.
