THE FUSE

We all know the phrase forgive and forget. But does forgiveness really help us forget? A recent study has verified something that most of us know from experience—it does not. Think about a time someone betrayed you, lied to you, broke a promise, or let you down emotionally. That moment probably stayed with you for a very long time. Even when you want to move on, the memory can still carry pain, anger, or sadness.
