Hmm, interesting. i totally agree about coming to terms, and get rid of rage to heal yourself.

But there are two different definitions of "forgive", closely related. It is something you do yourself, as a way to bring closure.

But mostly, people think about the word "forgive" as communicating to the offender the idea that the trespasses has been forgotten and are behind them, so to say. In serious matters, I see no reason to do this. The world is big enough to avoid assholes, so you don't have to risk the same happening again. That's my way, anyway.
