Link – You do not have to forgive. If you choose to – it may be a long journey – Pete Walker

“It is simply ‘shame shifting’ to suggest forgiveness is necessary. Victims of severe childhood abuse, should not be shamed in this way, or made to feel they are the ones in the wrong, for not forgiving as per someone else’s opinion and timeframe.
It is no-one’s right to suggest forgiveness is necessary, or how long a forgiveness journey should be.”

It’s your healing, no one else gets to tell you how to do it.

You do not have to forgive. If you choose to – it may be a long journey – Pete Walker
