Unlike God, we don't forget.
Have you ever talked to an abuse counselor about things they hear about and how they deal with it? If you've never been through abuse in your life, it's difficult, if not impossible, to understand or even fathom. If you don't understand it, you can't help someone deal with it any further than you've already suggested, but sadly, that's not the end of the problem.

I do know what it is like. I had a very bad situation happen to me and my family, I don't wish to reveal or relive it here. I have had to forgive and move on even though they are still after years telling their lies and trying to hurt us.
I must forget and forgive or be lost.
