not, we should respect the truth.
Forgiveness comes voluntarily and one cannot force
forgiveness.
Conditional forgiveness can be a short term relief but
may bring disappointments in a long run.
Forgiveness needs keeping a check on actions that
have had negative consequences, a commitment to fix
the wrong, and a sincere apology.
Forgiveness does not always mean reconciliation.

experience with your own choice and focusing
completely on how we want to go about how we have
felt.
Forgiveness is not declining the fact that we are hurt. It
does not mean that we have accepted the feeling.
Forgiveness allows us to let go of being a sufferer and to
move on to becoming someone who has shown courage
and has overcome a difficult or unpleasant situation.
