Forgiveness is a powerful tool for happiness, but it doesn’t mean forgetting. Happy people know that letting go of grudges frees them from negativity, while remembering what happened helps them set boundaries and avoid future harm.

Here’s how to forgive without forgetting:

 

  • Acknowledge Your Emotions: Allow yourself to feel hurt and process those feelings.
  • Choose Forgiveness: Release the anger and resentment that weigh you down.
  • Learn the Lesson: Reflect on the experience and use it to set boundaries.

 

Forgiving someone doesn’t mean giving them permission to hurt you again. It means choosing peace for yourself and creating a life filled with positive relationships and joy.
