Therapy or Network TV?

I think I need to be in therapy. Things I thought I had dealt with seem to be creeping back up on me.
This came to light when I watching Grey's Anatomy the other night. I found myself feeling just a little too much over a TV show.
I realize, what I thought I had forgiven, I have not. Because some things are just unforgivable. I have carried on as if I have forgiven someone. I allowed myself on several occasions to reenter someone's life because I had "forgiven".
I think you can forgive many things. I have forgiven my children the many things they have done to hurt me. I have forgiven my Father for things, and many others along the way, but some things really are just unforgivable.
And like it was said at the end of the show..
When you just can't forgive, the best you can hope for is to forget.

I feel some anger and sadness that hasn't been there in awhile, but somehow empowered that I really don't have to forgive.
It may sound weird, but realizing I do not forgive what has happened(over and over again) makes me feel somewhat normal in this situation. This is how I should feel. This is what may keep me from ever returning to the same situation. I know that forgivness can set us free, but sometimes false forgiveness or just wanting to forgive leads to stupidity.

Ok, who really needs therapy when we have shows like Grey's Atanomy to put it all in perspective?
