Sarah Montana: Why forgiveness is worth it

Why forgiveness is worth it

True forgiveness requires identifying personal wounds, not the actions against others, to release the chains of vengeance.

Justice feels cold; it assesses societal dues, not personal healing. True forgiveness evaluates personal damages inflicted.

Forgiveness isn’t about fast-tracking healing or proving morality; it’s a personal journey to disentangle from past trauma.
