		<description>I think I understand where you are coming from Steve. We always need to learn and accept (from your post on 'be conscious now') experiences so that we can grow from them. I don't know if I agree that one can ever reach a state of gratefulness for a bad experience.. maybe grateful for what you've learned, but not for the experience.
I am also a little confused about how you say that I attracted the situation. Are you saying that it is always both people's fault? I can't agree with that idea. Alot of times, it could be true. On the other hand, there are plenty of times when one person couldn't of changed the situation. An abused child could not be considered equally at fault as the abusive parent.</description>

		<description>It may be easier if you acknowledge your role in the act that needs to be forgiven. 

By your role I mean you attracted the situation just as much as the other player.

What ever happened that needs to be forgiven happened for a reason... if you can see this and find the reason you can come full circle to actually being grateful for the experience and come away a "better" person for it.</description>
