"Forgiveness was not a word I used at first, but hearing the bitterness and anger I knew I didn’t want to go down that road."
Eric Lomax
"The letter he wrote back was full of compassion, and I think at that moment I lost whatever hard armour I had wrapped around me."
David
"I don’t deserve forgiveness, but unless you can reach that point where you feel OK, you can never fully heal and move on."
Gethin Jones
"For me forgiveness started with first forgiving the system, then forgiving my mum and eventually forgiving myself."
