Can you really forgive if you can’t forget?
Meaning of the quote
The quote suggests that it can be very difficult to truly forgive someone if you are still unable to forget or let go of the hurtful thing they did. Forgiveness often requires being able to move past the memory of the wrongdoing, not just saying the words "I forgive you." It's a challenging thing to do, but can be an important step in healing and moving forward.
