I'd just add that very few people forgive because they haven't been shown what the options really are. We all CAN forgive, if we are shown the way, and are willing to do it.

It takes humility to forgive. I have heard a professed christian say; "I forgive but I cannot forget. That is not forgiveness. That is bearing a grudge. Once the ego is not subdued, forgiving is impossible. If someone does you a wrong,pity him; he has hurt only himself, not you. So I reiterate that forgiveness is impossible for the one who has not acquired humility which is the string that holds all the virtues together. In short, very few can truly forgive.
