Forgiveness is a profound act of grace, both toward others and yourself. When you forgive others, you release the heavy burden of resentment, allowing your heart to heal and your spirit to soar. It is an acknowledgment that we all falter and that beneath our mistakes lies a shared humanity. Forgiving yourself is equally vital. It requires courage to face the pain you've caused and the humility to accept your imperfections. In granting yourself forgiveness, you embrace growth and transformation, understanding that mistakes are opportunities for profound learning. By forgiving others and yourself, you create a space for reconciliation and peace, fostering a deeper connection with the world and a more compassionate self. #mentalhealth #forgiveness #psychology

Forgiveness is a financial term meaning to cancel a debt. We use it in relationships, because when you are wronged, you feel like a debt must be repayed. You may feel that payment should be revenge, money, a service, or anything that will make things even between you. However, there is nothing that will make the hurt go away. That debt of the hurt in your heart is etched in your soul; things can never be "even" again. And seeking to have that debt repayed puts a huge burden on yourself. That's why forgiveness is so important. It means you have decided not to seek repayment of the debt. You've accepted the hurt and decided not to let it burden you. It's always important to note that nobody is ever deserving or entitled to our forgiveness. However, forgiveness does wonders for the self. Forgiveness doesn't require acting as if the hurt never happened. Healthy boundaries can still be set after forgiveness to protect the relationship. (edited)

It's been a rough one.

The past year or so I've been broken down more than I ever have before. I've been struggling with my physical and mental health and just trying to wake up every day has been a chore. The good days have been few and far in between and back in January I'd almost given up. I'm mentally, emotionally,... read more

Would it be justified for me to call out tomorrow & Friday after being left alone as the ONLY CMA trying to triage assist the Dr for 20+ patients without any help? Other CMAs just up and didn't come... no word from neither of them... im just toooo tired....

Marriage Purgatory

I have decided to divorce, but I have not enough money. I'm at fault for poor communication, unhealthy flight coping mechanisms, and neurodivergent burnout. It's sad because my wife thought we were soulmates, and wanted to live together till we die. I never wanted to do this to her, but I was... read more

I just want to be at peace. I'm exhausted from everything. I feel completely alone and disconnected from everyone. So drained I'm afraid that I have no fight left. I guess the bad guys win. (edited)

Life Lesson❤️

Do you know why I always try to be there for people? Because no one ever tries to check on me. I try my best not to make anyone feel alone because I know exactly how it feels to be taken for granted. I listen to people, even though no one dares to listen to me. I always try to give people hope... read more
