Forgiveness does not mean that you have to like the delinquent or want to meet him; but that you must wish him well.
Of course you must not make a "door mat" of yourself. Of course you must not allow yourself to be imposed upon, or
ill treated. You must fight your own battles and fight them with prayer, justice, and good will. It does not matter
whether you can forget the injury or not, although if you cease to rehearse it you probably will -- but you must forgive.
Now reconsider The Lord's Prayer.
