Once again, I want to thank everyone who has participated in my poll! I loved receiving your feedback.
Unfortunately, there appears to be a glitch in the poll software. Blogger issues??? I checked blogger for poll bugs, but I didn't find any results. Anyhow, the votes keep falling off and disappearing.
Since the poll no longer seems to be working properly, I decided to post the last known results I had and take down the poll. Thanks to all who joined in!
As I’ve said before, during the span of the last thirty years – given where I was on my recovery at the time - I could have voted for seven out of the eleven choices here.
These are the results:
How much has forgiveness played a role in your recovery from abuse:
None 3 (6%)
Somewhat – Plays a small roll in my process. 1 (2%)
Somewhat - I don’t want to forgive and I’m okay with that. 4 (8%)
Somewhat – Forgiveness is a journey and I’m comfortable with my pace. 11 (22%)
Quite a bit – I’d like to forgive, but I am unable. 4 (8%)
Quite a bit – I won’t forgive unless some conditions are met. 3 (6%)
Quite a bit – I have forgiven. 6 (12%)
Huge - I’ll never forgive. 1 (2%)
Huge – Makes me angry. I feel damaged by pressure from others to forgive. 9 (18%)
Huge – My abuser acknowledged my injuries, asked for forgiveness and I have forgiven. 6 (12%)
None of the above. 3 (6%)
The soul cannot forgive until it
is restored to wholeness and health.
In the absence of love - how can one forgive?
With an abundance of love, starting with one's self,
forgiveness becomes a viable opportunity. -Nancy Richards
