Have you ever forgiven someone? If so, who needs God to forgive a second time?

My elder sister forgave me for nailing her skis together, but it took a long time.

I have no problem with your religious or non-religious views.

I do just a bit on your view of forgiveness.

I had to forgive the man who murdered my sister.
I found no humiliation in doing so.

We are all products of our environment and all contribute to what we all are. No one lives in a vacuum.
To not forgive means that I would have to hold a grudge against all who contributed to making that man a murderer and even against my own sister for putting herself near him. To forgive him is to forgive many.

thst is your choice, not mine, and it is also my ability to continue on, not having forgiven those who
I have chosen, and do so in my way, a way that allows me to continue my life knowing I did what I
know, for me, is right.
each to his own, and not for one to judge the other, not knowing how the other lives each day, in their
own way, not someone elses.
If one is struggling and hurting, then one must address that condition and find out why, and work to
overcome, and move on.
