To forgive or To forget ?

 The most toughest  (thanks Shakespeare) situation arises when we have the power to forgive someone but we don't know if we can. But I feel the toughest task is not to forgive but to forget. 

Starting from the back biting done to me 7 years ago, till the recent crushes and broken hearts there are so many memories which keep haunting me. Yes I have forgiven everyone the very minute they apologized and many others even before they did. Some who haven't realized their mistake yet are forgiven too. Speak and interact with everyone of them with a smile in my face and friendship in my heart. 

BUT the little lies, big made up stories, betrayals, broken promises keep flooding back every time I look at the particular persons. How could the person even smile and act friendly to me after talking all possible rubbish? How could a person develop guts to blame me for their mistakes? How could a person even stand in front of me after turning the whole situation against me for their benefit? How do they dare????

And most of all I keep wondering is it wrong to remember it all? Is it just me in this world who is like that or the same goes with everyone else too?

 And every-time I feel : To forget is a greatest boon... Sadly I don't possess it :(
