This word is Greek in origin. I've experienced a metanoia in my life recently. It's regarding a close family relationship. I don't want to share personal details, but I'll just say that I had to take a firm stand about some issues. It's the first time I've really insisted that the person respect my boundaries. I let him know that our relationship will be ended if he will not honor my wishes. This has been a difficult change of heart and mind for me, but one that I've needed to make for a very long time. Sometimes the most painful life decisions are also the most courageous and for the best! Have you experienced a metanoia?

Yes I have experienced it. But I stick to my wishes and finally got what I wanted. However the sacrifice was big.
