Yes, but do not feel compelled to reconcile with the person who caused the wounds unless they offer and make sincere amends. Society, especially family, conflate forgiveness and reconciliation when in fact they are separate concepts, and if one reconciles without the harmer changing one may be setting oneself up for “fool me once, shame on you, fool me again and again, I fuck myself”
