QUOTE : Some people are able to forgive when they realize that the other person just couldn't help it, because he or she was sick, damaged, or limited somehow.<br /><br />Some people find forgiveness when they realize the other person has suffered more than they have.<br /><br />We also find forgiveness when we realize the other person has suffered enough, even if he or she hasn't suffered more than we have. <br /><br />We forgive when we realize we're safe now.<br /><br />We forgive when we realize that we don't want to be the kind of person who doesn't forgive.<br /><br />We forgive when the other person makes up for what he or she has done.<br /><br />But perhaps the most important reason is that when we don't forgive, we're the ones who are hurt the most.
