You are not obligated to forgive. Unforgiven is on an external side of a boundary where feelings of mistrust, disloyal, deception and abuse is located. These feelings are felt and often actualized by the offender. The offender can be a stranger, a former friend or alleged friend, relative, acquaintance or non-acquaintance. Restoraton of a relatonship is dependent on you. You have the option to forgive and not restore a relationship, to not forgive and not restore a relationship, or even not forgive but restore the relationship. It is all dependent on YOU.
Unforgiveness is an affirmation of a person's decision to not forgive. Yes, an affirmation.
Many perceive unforgiveness as not having peace or holding a grudge. Yet, when an action is egregious and one overlooks it, it is perceived as having selective amnesia of some sorts. Yes, unforgiveness can be an affirmation on a decision to not forgive. This affirmation can be aligned with having peace. It can be peace in your decision making and can be peace to move on but keep the status of unforgiveness. The saying, "I forgive but not don't forget" is in some cases really unforgiven. This is your right to not forgive and still be at peace. It is your right to not forgive and and not have peace. Peace within your mind, body, and soul can allow one to be okay to move on and be okay or even exceptionally well.
Create your mood of happiness wherever you are! This year we are saturated with repetitive echoes of universal challenges. We can take moments daily to focus on happiness. This happiness may include reminiscing on photos from years ago, taking a walk, reorganizing a room, starting a new project or changing something to a color-coded feature. Growing and cooking food made me happy. My happiness activities were gardening, visiting ethnic food stores and cooking new dishes, and decluttering the closet these past few months.
