In what extent do you forgive a person who have done wrong to you, are you the type of forgive and forget person? Can you share in some thoughts my lotters?

I can forgive completely depending on the wrong done. Some cut very deep and hurt too much to forget even though you forgive.

I will forgive most errors.Unless they are committed repeatedly and are causing harm.I won't also allow deliberate mistakes with the intent to cause harm.But simple and off the cuff errors have to be forgiven and forgotten.

I am definitely the type to forgive and forget sometimes people tell me I am too quick to forgive people and I need to stop. I forgive too easily sometimes and need to let or rather make people earn my forgiveness i guess.

FORGIVENESS is a bilateral gift. It has an effect on the one who forgives and the forgiven. So if you forgive totally offer such a gift to the forgiven, and you would be freed from worries, angst and hate towards the person. I don't believe that you would actually forget something wrongly done unto you, because it already happened. Unless you'd have an amnesia, real FORGIVENESS happens, when you have accepted to yourself that YES you were hurt, but the pain is enough, and you wouldn't want to dwell on the pain, you want to move on, and enjoy life. So you want to be free of anger and pain and hurts,so you forgive. There is no measure of the extent of forgiveness, because there is no fix measure of the offense done. Just make it easy for you mate, that if someone wronged against you, you should come to a point called FORGIVENESS regardless of the gravity of offense made. Forgiveness is liberating! God bless you mate!
