Tonight's Topic: "Love and Forgivness"

The People You Can’t Forgive Give You a Gift You Do Not Want

“To hold someone else in resentment, judgment or unforgiveness is a kind of power, a false power that allows you to imagine, ‘As long as I can hold this in my mind and bring it up at the right moment, I can win every argument because I have won the real game of moral one-upmanship. I am now in control of this relationship.’

The ego always wants the same two things: to pretend it is separate and to pretend it is superior. To play the victim to our own advantage and for our own false empowerment is one of the most common and deceitful games that humans play. This will never give your soul comfort, nor will it comfort or heal the other, because it is not based in truth. And if we do not desire to heal and free the other, have we really forgiven them? I have had people ‘forgive’ me only to achieve their own moral superiority, but not to free or love me. You can always tell the difference.”

Richard Rohr is a Franciscan friar and the author of Eager to Love.
