That is a great video Myrna. I can forgive people but I will always be leery of them too. I'm probably too trusting and then when someone betrays that trust it is devastating, but I do try and forget about it and go on. When someone betrays my trust, it takes a long time, if ever, for me to trust them again. You talk about forgiving the man and I am assuming the accident was his fault. I could forgive someone, or at least I think I could, someone who caused me pain without intending to. It's the ones who intentionally inflict pain on me that I have a problem with. Thanks for sharing a great video and have a wonderful weekend. :) PS: Myrna another opinion I have is, if we tell someone we forgive them, then we're basically giving them permission to do it again. I think in a lot of cases, the best thing to do, is distance outselves from them, for our own peace of mind. Quote:
Hi Evelyn,I love your last 2 videos. The last one mentioned forgiveness. This is a good subject to me. I had problems with forgiving. After my auto accident in 2005, my pastor said to me" Myrna you know you have to forgive him, don't you" That statement really got me thinking about forgiving that man that did this and did that to me...........you know those kind of thoughts, but then, it really starting working on me, I had a lot of time to think and ponder on forgiveness... and after many months I finally forgave him.....and I can say that a great weight was lifted from m,. it was wonderful. I now think the accident was my reason to lean how to forgive, and I now say it was worth it. I too believe that everything happens for a reason. This was my reason to learn how to forgive. I really like this video on forgiveness. P. S. Peter I liked all the music but the 3rd one, didn't know what it was about.
