A neighbour murdered her father with an axe and injured her. Many years later she finds freedom from her anger and bitterness after a face to face with him.
Highly intelligent and articulate lady massive respect to her

We ARE our actions. The most important lesson I’ve ever learned is that having been dealt a shitty hand in life doesn’t mean that others deserve to suffer for it. The reason why I don’t believe in restorative justice is for the simple fact that there is just no way to tell for sure if a criminal truly regrets the crime that they committed. It is literally impossible.

Very powerful and no less provocative. I must say I look to your ability to forgive in amazement; not that I find it hard to believe or the wrong thing to do, but because of the emotional stakes involved in such a transformation. I find this video to be extremely interesting.

(cont) When I was put together with him face to face and started to hear more about his life, he became a person. When we see somebody as a human being it's natural to want to move forward and to not persecute him."

( cont) "I think once people get talking face to face, for me what happened in that room, he became a person. Once that starts to happen, humanity, you come to recognise the other person as a human being. I think there's so much to be gained from it because what happens, what happened for me as a victim, is I just saw him as a an axe murderer. Nothing else was important. Don't tell me anything else about him. He murdered my father. (cont)

@Imyourcounciousness Have you sat down and talked to him yet, or was his sanction settled through the courts? There is much research that supports restorative justice, and if you find your nearest restorative justice facility, they can probably see about setting up an appointment with you and the offender. Some could even set it up if the offender is in prison. Please try to do this, life is far too short to be consumed by such toxic feelings.

One more thing... 8:14 Sounds like is an excellent lesson for the media and their use of focal points in news coverage; they contribute tremendously (especially when the crime report first surfaces) to replace the idea of a person for that of the crime they commited.

I think there is a giant difference between forgiving a person and forgiving the event that happen. In a situation like this, I would go with the latter.

Does anyone know any questionnaire used on the study of restorative justice
