Journey to Forgiveness

Write about a situation you regret, but recount it as if you were narrating it about a different person, not yourself.

This technique fosters empathy by first seeing the situation from an outsider’s perspective. This can help you understand that everyone makes mistakes. As you write the story from a third-person viewpoint, find ways to sympathize with the character, consider why they may have acted as they did, and how they could grow and learn from the situation.
