The Complexity of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is far more nuanced than simply forgetting a harmful event. Understanding forgiveness involves acknowledging the harm done, naming it specifically rather than in abstract terms, and confessing the pain to oneself. This process is essential for true forgiveness, as seen in biblical narratives like Peter's denial and Joseph's reconciliation with his brothers.
