- Summary:
- Forgiving can be one of the hardest things we'll ever do. We sense deep down that it will be good for us and others to put the past in the past. But sometimes no matter what we do, we just can't seem to forgive and get on with life. We still feel hurt, bitter, and angry. How can we break the cycle? Grounding their analysis and advice in the latest psychological research, the authors of To Forgive Is Human reveal how we can forgive and begin to repair broken relationships.
