Forgiveness is not only for those who are nearly to meet Death, nor for those who deserve to. It is for all the creatures that God has made because forgiving with all your heart is a life-long process as they say," Forgiveness is the key to eternal life." No one is throned to be perfect for we are all sinners. It is a matter of responsibility where our heart and soul should prevail love and gentleness.
We should not let darkness pollute our mind allowing pride and hatred hypnotize our faith in Him. We should maintain the purity in our heart for every wound is destined to be healed. Because when our verdict would come, forgiveness would never the hardest to give.
I do not believe in him and I have doubts if it comes to true forgiveness. The thing is there's a huge difference between saying and doing plus soul and mind need time to forgive, to give what has happened a place somehow. This isn't something you can force, it can't be done in an hour or month, who knows not even 50 years.
