To be forgiven you have to first admit you've done wrong. Then you have to say you're sorry.
Then it's up to me to forgive.
Without the first two steps it's not being forgiven, it's getting away with doing wrong.
It's why I have a lot of problems with a couple of politicians. They failed to say they were sorry or admit what they were doing was wrong.
I agree...and in my own case, before I consider forgiveness, the wrongdoer generally has to come up with a plan to make good whatever he did trhat wronged me...and then follow through on it.
