Forgiveness as Part of Pre-Marital Preparation
On November 19, 2024, Dr. Enright posted an essay on the Psychology Today website with a focus on forgiveness being a part of pre-marital preparation. Too often, this issue of learning about forgiving one another in the future, once married, is not given sufficient attention. The essay suggests the following points:
- Examine the injustices suffered while growing up so that the residual anger does not come into the marriage;
- Forgive those from the past who have hurt you because of unjust treatment;
- Bring this learning about forgiving into the marriage, with the commitment to practice forgiving in the marriage;
- Be prepared to teach your children about forgiveness so that they can be prepared for unjust treatment toward them in the future.
