I forgive because holding onto the anger only hurts me, not them cause they could care less how we feel. I would have lots of reasons to not forgive my ex for everything. I choose to forgive him but I will never like him EVER. Forgiving let's me release the anger inside me & get on with MY life.

I saw how my unforgiving grandma was regarding her brother & their inheritance (he died before I was born) It made her into a very bitter old lady & I swore I would never let that happen to me. I think all that held in anger made her a very dangerous alzheimers person too who struck out at family. We really don't know how held in anger from not forgiving can effect us later in life besides keeping us bitter throughout our life
