About This Quote
To forgive is a decision, to forget takes effort, to heal is a process, to believe again takes courage. When you forgive someone who has hurt you, it isn't always easy. The person has hurt you in the past, but now the hurt has passed and you are willing to let that person back into your life. You have made the decision that this time will be different, but forgiveness still isn't easy.
You have to work at forgetting what was done in the past so you can move on. But once forgiveness is your decision doesn't it kind of take the power away from actually forgetting? Can you really heal if it's not on your mind all the time? Can you really move on if it's not on your mind at all?
