Two people talk through old hurt. One offers forgiveness, the other apologizes for harm done to them and their family. Both acknowledge they're still learning to forgive themselves.

I don't have a whole lot of time to explain, and it's nothing, you know, I'm not in danger. I wanted to call you, and I just want you to know that for anything that I've held against you and anything that I have still in my heart, I forgive you. And the resentful part of me needs to go away, and I'm trying to retire that person. What's going on, man? I'm working through stuff, and it's not a bad thing, okay? I just need you to know that I'm working through my process and it has nothing to do with you at this point. And I need you to know for myself that I forgive you.
And I appreciate that and love you so much for that. And I know that took a lot to say. And I'm sorry for everything that I did to you and your brother and our family.
Thank you for apologizing.
And I mean that from the bottom of my soul. If I could change anything that happened, I definitely would. I can only move forward and be better. And I appreciate you forgiving me. That means a lot. More than you'll ever know. And I have a hard time forgiving my own self.
I know that.
But I'm working on it.
That's where it starts.
