Decryption of quote

Forgive but do not forget, or you will be hurt again.

Imagine holding onto a grudge like a heavy burden, carrying it with you wherever you go. It weighs you down, causing pain and resentment to fester within your heart. Forgiveness is like setting down that burden, releasing yourself from the chains of anger and bitterness. But if you forget the hurt that was caused, you leave yourself vulnerable to being hurt in the same way again.

Forgiving changes the perspectives.

When you choose to forgive someone, you are not excusing their actions or saying that what they did was okay. Instead, you are choosing to let go of the negative emotions that are holding you back. Forgiveness allows you to see the situation from a different angle, to empathize with the other person, and to find peace within yourself.

Forgetting loses the lesson.

Every experience, whether positive or negative, teaches us something valuable. When we forget the lessons that come from our past hurts, we are more likely to repeat the same mistakes. Remembering the pain allows us to grow, to learn, and to become stronger individuals. It is through remembering that we can prevent history from repeating itself.

So, forgive those who have wronged you, not for their sake but for your own. Let go of the anger and resentment that is holding you back. But do not forget the lessons that you have learned along the way. Use them to guide you, to protect you, and to help you become the best version of yourself. Forgiveness is not a sign of weakness, but of strength. It is a choice to free yourself from the past and to embrace a brighter future.
