Who Are The Losers in Forgiveness?

When forgiveness comes, who are the losers?  Is it the offender?  Is it those who forgave?  Is it both?  Or is it perhaps, neither?   What if forgiveness of ourselves is what is to be allowed?  Are there losers in the wake of what forgiveness brings?  Or is it win-win-win-win for all?  Who can say, right?  If forgiveness leaves healing in its path as countless numbers have attested to~ about myriads of circumstance ~ then who can lose if healing is the thing that comes?  Who can deny the freedom found in forgiveness’ wake?  Are there any losers?  Or are the forgivers of the world just losers?  How could forgiveness have the mere function of marking the losers of the world?  What school of thought considers forgiveness the enemy, but the school of old hurts and fears of future pain?

Regardless of all else ~ What loss can come from even the tiniest allowance of forgiveness within our day?
