The importance of forgiveness is a huge concept we humans should heavily focus on. We, humans, justify others' actions as being unforgivable which leads to bad blood between you and that individual. Your girlfriend cheating on you, being betrayed by your close friend, etc. All these elements could lead to you being unforgivable towards anyone. You have this type of behavior can lead to worse scenarios. This can lead to long-term depression and can seriously affect your future if not taken proper care of it. This module heavily focuses on acts of bitterness, hurt, and guilt. Melanie went through a depression phase during her younger years in life. She mentions her getting married at a very young age to a man named Matt. Throughout the marriage, Melanie seriously became depressed which led to Matt becoming very frustrated but at the same tried to give the support Melanie needed. Matt couldn’t deal with it and furiously left Melanie at her hardest stage. Melanie felt like it was the end of the world and contemplated suicide to let the pain go. Throughout this stage, she felt a sense of strength which slowly helped her but her mindset was still full of toxicity and rage. She states how playing the victim card doesn’t help boost your self-esteem due to the fact trying to gain sympathy from others is going to make you feel weaker. I have experienced the stage of rage and pain which is a stage I never want to experience ever again for the fact it’s the most stressful, overthinking stage, and overall you’re just in a terrible mood and those around will end up not tolerating your negative energy.
Throughout the module, Melanie discusses forgiveness and how it’s a truly great experience when it occurs. Melanie did not have such a great relationship with her mother due to the fact Melanie felt like her mother owed her something in this life. During this situation, Melanie realized how important her mother was to her and how devastated she would feel if she lost her. Melanie explains about her working on herself and having the courage to rebuild a fresh relationship with her mother. I have been in a situation with my mother as well. When I was in my elementary school days, my mother wouldn’t let me go play outside with my friends and wouldn’t let me experience the fresh life outside. She always told me that she was worried for me and that the community we lived in at the time had a very dangerous reputation for any crimes occurring. This upset me because I wanted to play soccer with my school friends and experience more of the outside life as a kid which led to me becoming furious with my mother and ignoring her for the majority of the day. I would have second thoughts about how much she cares for me and how she wants me to feel safe and protected. Eventually, we moved out of the community into a much safer area and I had more freedom to do anything. I noticed I was heavily angry and full of rage which led to me asking for forgiveness then this created a stronger bond between me and her. Melanie discusses her high school experience with an individual who used to physically and verbally bully her. Years went by and they never spoke to each other again. Melanie was still full of anger and rage at the fact the bully didn’t seek forgiveness and just left her feeling furious about the whole situation. Melanie then realized that the importance of self-care can help her psychologically. Overall this module has taught me about self-forgiveness and the importance of letting things go and working on yourself. To this day, I am still working on myself to be the best person I could be because a life with rage and anger isn’t going to get you anywhere.
