Hey, !
They hurt you.
They were mean and horrible and their actions were inexcusable.
Whether it went on for years or happened one time, those wounds sometimes feel too deep to heal.
How could they be so awful?
And hear's the kicker - they haven't changed.
They don't deserve your forgiveness, and they'll certainly never ask for it.
You want to put it behind you, but every time you see them, that familiar resentment bubbles to the surface.
They make everyone around them so miserable. You just KNOW they must be miserable themselves.
And they probably are.
But maybe - just maybe - if you knew the story of their pain, you could understand (even a little) how they came to be that way. And maybe that would help ease your pain, even a little.
In this week's Worthy Wednesday live, I talked about how having deep, soul-level compassion helped me heal from the trauma of a long-term abusive relationship that started when I was six, so I could find freedom, healing, and peace - without victim-blaming or excusing the other person's behavior in any way.
(Spoiler Alert: You'll also hear a special announcement of something exciting I have coming up for you in a few weeks.)
