forgive, yes. forget, no.
by forgiving, you dont hold a grudge, you dont spend your energies going after someone who had wronged you, having some ongoing feud etc etc.
but forgetting may put you in the same position again later where the person who had taken advantage of you does it again. Not unless that person has changed his/her ways.
A scenario~ a person/group is backbiting a certain person behind their back, an to their face they appear like saints, when the person finds out tht the other person/group is backbiting them....the backbiters feel ashamed an quickly apologize......
question is, are the backbiters sorry for backbiting or for being found out?
yes a person can be forgiven but not forgotten an I think tht's where our dear friend sara is a lil confused.com.....an sara a true apology is when u dont repeat the same thing again...... especially if u r to regain the respect u have lost......
