To get to forgiveness, we first have to work through the painful experiences that require it."

--forgiveness is one of the greatest Gifts God has given each of us

To forgive, we do not have to say that whatever happened was okay. In fact, before we can forgive, we need to allow ourselves to really feel the pain of the experience. If we don’t fully acknowledge our hurts, we will continue to carry them subconsciously and they will drain our energy.

To forgive, we need to decide that we won’t allow the memories of the event to poison us any longer. We’re ready to heal this wound from the past and open to a fresh new beginning.

The blessing is that when we’re really ready to experience our pain and we open to it, it usually fades away. By honouring our pain, we release it.

"We must let ourselves feel all the painful destruction we want to forgive rather than swallow it in denial. If we do not face it, we cannot choose to forgive it."

Thank you for such a beautiful post..I agree with this however I also understand that in order to forgive others, forgiving our self, loving & understanding who we are  first is the only way to truly forgive. I speak this from my own experience. As you have said in your beautiful post not allowing the memories to poison. 
The memory will always be there but they do fade into nothingness meaning the emotions are not there anymore..only the memory.
I remember... but I cannot feel the emotions now as I have left that by the wayside and given to God to bless....To forgive also in my understanding, can also help those who have inflicted the pain as well. All unfolds beautifully like the petals of a rose.
