Should I forgive him? Should I forgive her? Here’s what you should ask yourself first.

Truly, there is an obvious shift in our hearts and minds that happens when we go from feeling hurt and upset to peaceful and loving, but it’s not necessarily forgiveness that’s taking place, it’s just the realization that there was nothing to forgive in the first place.  Because mistakes are the growing pains of wisdom, and sometimes they just need to be accepted with no strings attached.
