onit- as I wrote in the post just before yours, it’s not necessary to forgive the other person in order to have that peace of mind. As long as you believe that Hashem will take care of the punishment, you can banish all thought of that person and what he did for you knowing that Hashem will handle it. It’s actually usually easier to let go and move on without forgiving. In each situation it’s important to speak to someone you respect whether or not you should forgive the person who hurt you. Forgiveness is a beautiful thing, but Hashem doesn’t force you to forgive by hounding you with bad thoughts until you do.
