Here is my fifth slogan about forgiveness: “Forgiveness ultimately is about freedom. It is a freedom from the burden of resentment because of what happened to me.”
Actually, forgiveness is about giving, the giving of goodness in the form of mercy, and on its highest level, love to those who behaved badly. As with your fourth slogan, you may be confusing what forgiveness is with one major consequence of forgiving. As we give this mercy to the other (in terms of what forgiveness is), a consequence often is freedom from resentment.
