We've all been told to forgive and forget. But forgiveness is a gift. It is a gift to the offender but it also is a gift to ourselves. Do not make light of an apology. And I am here to tell you to not forgive so easily. It is a choice. It is a choice that is ours and no one else's. Your feelings are genuine. And your warning signs legit. Learn to tell the difference between a heartfelt apology and a manipulative tactic. Don't be afraid to let go if needed. Forgive doesn't mean to remain. --- This episode is sponsored by ยท Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paula-julson/support
