Why is self forgiveness hard?

1. Good question. We are frequently our harshest critics.

2. Because people tend to be their own worst critics. It’s also super easy to be hard on yourself, whereas self forgiveness can require a great degree of mental fortitude. So I’ve found anyway.

3. cause we’re too hard on ourselves and criticize ourselves a lot not seeing also the positive sides of what we went through so self forgiveness isn’t considered as a step forward to heal
