It depends on the context. If someone forget what is happen with him/her then it is not considered or fit as forgiveness. Because he/she forget not actually want to forget.
Actually want to forget is sometimes relates to 'not remembering' . Here person's will involve and he/she don't want to remember anything bad happen. So it sometimes fit into consideration of forgiveness.
Well, "forgive and forget" isn't really possible, unless we develop amnesia! The key to forgiving is not hanging on to the resentment and anger the hurt has caused you, to realize that we all make mistakes. True forgiveness doesn't even depend on the person who hurt you apologizing or asking for forgiveness.
We can forgive others for their transgressions against us even if they aren't sorry they did it! But that doesn't mean you have to let the person continue to treat you badly in the future, just because you have forgiven them. Sometimes we need to distance ourselves from people who continually hurt us without regret.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
