Forgiveness and conscious love is necessary. However, knowing how to safely navigate relationships requires caution, restraint, skill, and wisdom.
Justice without mercy is tyranny. Mercy without justice is complacency with wrong.
Knowing how to relate to others who have harmed us requires great compassion, but also great discernment, judgment, and even ethical boundaries, so that we do not become victims of other people's perversities.
Mercy and Justice, be ye the equilibrium and splendor of my life! -Invocation of Solomon
