It is crucial to take a decision to forgive, because it is only then that the whole process of unravelling begins. Forgiveness is not an action or emotion, it is something deeper . It isa state of being. When forgiveness happens there is no need to say anything. It is a state where there remains no sense of revenge.

He goes on to explain how understanding the need to forgive is not enough, and elaborates on the steps one can take towards forgiveness ER -
