Outer Darkness?

I did see what you were responding to. I was just struck about your comment that you forgave Witness Lee, and your other statement that "unforgiveness is torture for the unforgiving". In human life this is true! Basically I was asking you to go off the "Outer Darkness" topic just for one post and talk a little more about how you came to forgive Witness Lee. Not because it's Witness Lee, but because you forgave someone. I have a hard time forgiving people myself, so am always looking for others' experience or advice in how to do so. If you don't want to say anything further though, no problem!

Trapped,

"Unforgiveness...how do you do it?" is a great topic which I don't believe has been discussed here. Maybe you would like to start a new thread?
