I guess I'm not as loving and as humble as I think I am.

Forgiving is not my goal but I do forgive when I am able to understand. When you forgive a child you also try to explain to them why they misbehaved. This implies a meeting between the aggrieved party and the abuser, which is not always possible. Forgiving every foul deed makes no sense, we should make sure the crime is not repeated.

@EarthlingWise I can understand that.
