Reflection 15: Pause — Resentment and the Act of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is often discussed as something we do for another person.
But what if forgiveness is also something we do for ourselves?
In this reflection, Dr. Nnenna Ndika explores forgiveness not as forgetting, approval, or obligation, but as self-compassion, self-agency, and nervous-system stewardship.
A reflection on resentment, emotional healing, and the possibility of allowing life’s experiences to become stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks.
