I did not see any video this morning. But I like judgement Tessa. Good judgement that is. I'm not fond of poor judgement. I wonder what it is you are referring when you say to not judge, or that it does not help. If someone has caused you pain, do you not reflexively start erecting a judgement barrier. If you find the action that caused the pain was intentional, how would you not consider that you were a victim. I'm puzzled. As for forgiveness, to forgive would be divine. I want to forgive wrongs as I want to be forgiven. But if there is no sincere apology made, there is no healing by forgiving an intentional wrong. More likely a vicious cycle unless some kind of judgement is made. Less chance of being hypnotized and more chance of avoiding future pain. I'm not following very well.
Thank you for speaking your mind, Paul! As far as how forgiveness works in my opinion, here is a story about that. I think in an ideal world, it is healthy to wait for an apology but in this current state of the world we are in, we can often wait and wait and wait till cows come home, so there can be another mechanism to let go, and hope that one day, in this life or another, an apology or a closure will come, and that it will make things sweet for real https://tessa.substack.com/p/anatomy-of-forgiveness
In an ideal world an apology may not be necessary. Or maybe it would, that is consideration to ponder if creating a universe or a world. Maybe worthwhile in an eternal perception. Maybe another day. We also have this world, now, where we can wait and wait and wait. And when ones talking point becomes less popular, something that has the appearance of an apology may become evident. The loving spiritual beings may want so much to forgive and heal that there seems a possibility that a travesty of justice could occur without good judgement being exercised. Judgment may be like a double-edged sword, though. If mercy and justice were ever to meet, and they might never quite meet, but if they do, maybe we will have a conclusion. And that point may only be the beginning.
The article on the anatomy of forgiveness article is well considered and there is no argument from me. You have such lovely insight.
