New Post: Key Themes of Sr. Miriam James Hiedland - Love fears not hurt:
Featured Faith Fragment
Today we recognize that being able to forgive others implies the liberating experience of understanding and forgiving ourselves. Often our mistakes, or criticism we have received from loved ones, can lead to a loss of self-esteem. We become distant from others, avoiding affection and fearful in our interpersonal relationships. Blaming others becomes falsely reassuring. We need to learn to pray over our past history, to accept ourselves, to learn how to live with our limitations, and even to forgive ourselves, in order to have this same attitude towards others.
Francis, Apostolic Exhortation on the Love in the Family _Amoris laetitia_ (19 March 2016), §107.
