The victim may say, "I can't forgive these people. You don't now
how bad they hurt me." The problem is, they are still hurting you.
How  do you  stop the pain? Forgiveness is what sets us free from
the past. What is to be gained in forgiving is freedom.  You  don't
heal in order to forgive.  You  forgive  in  order  to heal. Forgiveness
is to set a  captive free and then to realize you were the captive.
You don't  forgive others for their sake; you  do it for your sake.
Those you need to forgive may never be aware of your choice to let
them off your hook. Forgiveness  is  the  fragrance that is left on the
heel that crushed the violet.

has forgiven the inexcusable in you." ~ C.S. Lewis
