I learned a long time ago, that each of us walk down our own path, in our own ways, for our own reasons, and in our own time. We don't learn at the same rate, we don't perceive in the same ways, and we are all in different places along that path. Sometimes, as human nature, we all too often view others with the same expectations and convictions we have for ourselves, but that isn't quite fair. Even the person that fucks up the most, does so because they simply have not yet learned the lessons or wisdom in which they would've required to not have made the mistake.
Forgiveness is always just simply the right thing to do, and is merely a statement of "you are not perfect. You do the best you can with what you know, feel and have, and we are all on a journey to achieve a higher state of wisdom. I don't agree with what you did, but it is my hopes that nothing but good things come for you and that you someday acquire the wisdom necessary along your path to right your wrongs and be enlightened to why that's not something you should do again".
We are all human and inherently flawed. Some more than others. But all we can do is the best we can, and sometimes that best falls far short of what someone in our lives expects and needs. But it doesn't make us truly bad people. It just makes us journeyers down our paths like everyone else.
