Part Three
"Forgive and
Remember" (3) Something on unforgiveness.... Quoted from Jerry
Sittser."
- Unforgiveness is different from anger, grief or the desire
for justice.
- Unforgiveness is as ruinous as a plague.
- The destruction of unforgiveness can occur on a large scale
as we see in Northern Ireland or in the Middle East.
- Unforgiveness can
also occur on a small scale as we observe in gang warfare, family feuds
and conflict between former friends.
- In the name of
unforgiveness, people can do terrible things.
- Unforgiveness uses victimisation as an excuse. Unforgiving people become obsessed with
the wrong done to them.
- The unforgiving person claims to be in the right and this
may very well be so. But I wonder sometimes if being right is worth the
misery it causes?
- Is it worth living in the bondage to unforgiveness? Is it worth the cycle of destruction it perpetrates?
