This is the second piece I have read on forgiveness today. Perhaps the universe is sending me a message! Thank you

Sadly, forgiveness isn’t a quality that earns high praise in American culture. It’s often seen as a weakness instead which is a shame because you and I both know that’s not true. Like vulnerability, it’s actually a strength and can give you real power. Wish more people understood that but hopefully this article brings more awareness to that idea.

Sometimes just leaving the past behind us help us to learn how to forgive is the right path to take. Never forget that the biggest step is always to forgive ourself first then, you will be able to forgive others!

Just give her time!

This may be an off-the-wall comment, but maybe she has forgiven him and chosen to move on without him. Every child in the family experiences their parents in a different way. Her issues with your parents are hers to manage. I know it is sad when things like this happen and the family dynamic changes. There is no such thing as a perfect family. Hang in there, Tom.
