The Role of Blame in Forgiveness

The ways in which our practices of forgiving can go wrong are not due to just extraneous factors any practice can go wrong. The stance and the stance that the person is trying to adopt when they're going in for gifted forgiveness is precisely this generous never mind that you hurt me i'm going to let you go anyway kind of a stance. We try to repress what blame feelings you've got in order to help us off get rid of them but we can fail so that's a kind of way in which we try to construct our own feelings and you when we forgive.
