Great article on forgiveness.

I hope this helps the ones in here who went trough abuse or any situation that caused hurt and resentment.
It certainly gave me a lot to think about. I am still holding onto resentment towards my exabf.... I'll have to work on it as well as on my self esteem.

I already like it when it starts with something like this:
Note from Jackson: Forgiveness by definition asks you to explore the perpetrator's humanity, which has the potential to trigger intense cognitive dissonance—even thoughts of making contact with your abuser. If you’re new to recovery, I’d highly recommend skipping this article and checking back when you’re 100% certain you’ll never contact this person again (or blame yourself for what happened to you). And even then, forgiveness isn’t right for a lot of people. Plenty of survivors find peace without it. This article is simply written for those of you who are interested in learning more about forgiveness.
