if i could be clear that in my forgiveness, i was not giving a person license to cause harm to others or myself in the future....then i think yes. this is of the utmost importance in asking for amnesty, as this woman did...and i think she did so with good cause. this young man sounds genuinely contrite, and seems to be taking to his new chance at life with good intent. if i allow society to remain aggrieved by another's actions, i have much more room to give personal forgiveness.
