Forgiving

April 08, 2024 by junoh kimm

I see predators as prey, and we often forget how little we know about the fragile environment that shapes predators' actions. Despite all the effort to logically delineate their misbehaviors, my emotions often take over my mind and guide me to disruptive behaviors–further complicating the intricate dynamics between me and you or us and them. It is a trap.

Forgiveness is not a weakness. Anger and resentment are the most vital act that one can ever do. It is not allowing the momentarily misguided prey who became predators to continue hurting my centrality. It is about saying no and telling them i am stronger than you. It also reminds the misguided prey that i am a reflection of your weakness.

I do not know much about how to heal from wounds, nor do i have any professional training in psychiatry or spirituality. What i have found somewhat helpful is that walking away from my hurtful memories is an asset in recovery—just one day at a time.

Always remind ourselves that all actions are a logical response to the structural conditions in which we are embedded. The fragile and rhizomatic (i.e., the messy roots of a tree) system shapes mental mistakes. Thus, we as preys shall have compassion for predators—see them as prey. By doing so, we detach ourselves from our prey ego and walk away from the memory.

Let's stay positive and not let the spiral trap continue beyond us.
