To Forgive is

What does it mean when you forgive somebody? Pastor Frederick Buechner says,
To forgive somebody is to say one way or another, "You have done something unspeakable, and by all rights I should call it quits between us. Both my pride and my principles demand no less. However, although I make no guarantees that I will be able to forget what you’ve done and though we may both carry the scars for life, I refuse to let it stand between us. I still want you for my friend." - from Wishful Thinking
