Dallin"Why should we love our enemies? The first reason is pretty obvious. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction. So when Jesus says 'Love your enemies' [Matt. 5:44], he is setting forth a profound and ultimately inescapable admonition. Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies – or else? The chain reaction of evil – hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars – must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation." – Martin Luther King Jr., Strength to Love (Philadelphia: Fortress Press, 1977), 53.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/love" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#love</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/peace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#peace</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/forgiveness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#forgiveness</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/reconciliation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#reconciliation</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/peacemaker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#peacemaker</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/hate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hate</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/war" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#war</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/darkness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#darkness</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/evil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#evil</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#government</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/violence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#violence</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/christian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#christian</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/society" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#society</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/humanity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#humanity</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/nonviolence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nonviolence</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/warning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#warning</a>

Permission to stop carrying the hate.But it's your hate, and you get to choose. It isn't about if they "deserve" forgiveness or not. That's not the point.If you don't want to forgive, don't.But that shit takes energy. Choose where to spend it. Plenty of things are literally unforgivable, and that sucks, but it's life.It's up to you to decide how to spend your time and energy.
