Remember, আপনি don't forgive someone for his অথবা her sake - আপনি forgive them for your sake. (On a side note, I just read that as "sake", the drink. I think that means it's time for me to get some sushi.)

Forgiving doesn't mean forgetting, nor does it mean that you've প্রদত্ত the message that what someone did was okay. It just means that you've let go of the anger অথবা guilt towards someone, অথবা towards yourself. But that can be easier ব্যক্ত than done. If forgiveness was easy, everyone would be doing it.
