For years I held the fact that I’d been molested when I was eleven or so against all men. I think it’s time to lighten up on my thinking and toughen up with my attitude. So, now boys won’t cause me fear and apprehension. Instead, I will just refuse to take them seriously.

I think what I’m trying to say is that I have forgiven him. And that I have also forgiven myself for maybe being a teasing child. Unaware, yet aware.

I don’t know if i can forgive for what happened to me as a kid but my old therapist said i need to talk about the trauma or I’ll never heal.
Right. I talked about it with my therapist for quite awhile. And, believe me, I was not in any forgiving mood until now. The rage had to be expressed first, and the sympathy received.

I don’t know you but my heart goes out to you. You’ve gotten further than me, I can’t forgive my abusers. Nor do I want to.

Don’t forget, I’m 74 years old. I’m beginning to listen to my maker more than I would in my youth. It is better to forgive, you will be able to fight off the fear.
