Hi everyone! Welcome or welcome back to 'The Teen Safe Zone', where it's safe for teens to be themselves! In today's post, will be talking about learning how to forgive those who treated you wrong. Forgiving those who treated you wrong may seem a little... backwards, but a lot of people underestimate the importance of forgiveness. Forgiveness, I would say, is like the seal to ending something.
Just think about it: if someone treated you badly and acted bitter towards you, it wouldn't be right for you to do the same; two wrongs don't make a right. Despite what they did to you, step up and be the bigger person to say, "Despite what you put me through, I'm going to be a strong person and forgive you for what you've done to me." That takes a lot of courage that only a wise and mature person would say. Remember, forgiving means that you are not just forgiving that person, but you are also forgiving yourself for allowing yourself to go through the pain and hurt that you didn't deserve.
If you choose to leave them on "bad terms" like they did to you to make it "fair," then you hurt people, so stop the cycle. Don't let bitterness, anger, and disappointment get to you. Don't let them hold power over you to make you become a bitter person.
Forgiving someone doesn't mean that you have to deal with them; forgiving stems from the heart, so as long as you truly forgive them from your heart, move on from the past. Forgiveness is like the seal that ends something and the key to beginning something new.
