When I went through the Unresolved Anger Decompression work, I went through 7 of the 8 steps without any problem. The 8th step I left out in regards to certain people who have hurt me in my past. The 8th step is "Reaching out to the offender." Those "offenders" who are still in my life, I have reached out to and mended our relationship. Those who are not still in my life, I left alone and did not make any effort to reach out to them. My excuse was that I had no idea how to contact them.
This morning while I was on Facebook, two of the men that 'offended' me showed up. No, they didn't ask me to be their friend, but I found them from their commenting on a picture of one of my friends.
Now I have no excuse not to reach out to them.
How important do you think this step is in both the decompression of unresolved anger, and in the forgivess process?? If I do decide to reach out to them, what in the world would I say??
