Do you feel forgiveness is not something you just give as a one time thing? Like one second you're fine but then later on, you're not?

I sometimes think of old relationships.
Sometimes I feel I'm okay and wish them well.

Sometimes though, when I think of them again, I kinda imagine some sort of punishment or reprimand.

I don't think sorry is meant to be just a word. When one is sorry, there should be chasing for atonement. When one wants back, there should be a change. But the wall is built to be climbed.

But it's like the apple at the top of the tree thing. Effort is a thing that makes you realize the difference between people you wanna keep around you and people you wanna throw away.

Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.

I felt like this before, one minute I was fine then the next I wasn't...I found that in order to heal I had to forgive him 70 times a day reliving the grievances in my mind over and over again, until choosing to forgive and time healed my wounds, and yes I do wish him well, even after hearing that he thinks little of me, I was upset all over again, and had to forgive once again, but heaven gave me a glimpse of the truth and no hard feelings. I love him. But had to let go.

Forgiveness is not an event, it is a process.
