@philosophaire: “ Forgive your parents. They too had a childhood that they didn't heal from. They didn't know what they were doing to you because they didn't get to experience unconditional love as well. Don't try to change that. Now that you're aware, just make sure to break the cycle.” - Shoaib Hussain “ Being a cycle breaker means making the brave choice to confront and heal the patterns we inherited, even when it involves forgiving those closest to us-like our parents. Forgiving them doesn't mean erasing the pain or pretending the past was perfect; it means understanding they, too, were shaped by cycles they didn't break. By choosing forgiveness, we're not just freeing them; we're freeing ourselves.” -Breakingthepsyche
