Forgive & Forget

Tonight while doing the usual Facebook stalking I came upon this quote;

"If you want to forget someone never hate him/her, everyone that you hate is engraved upon your heart; if you want to forget, you cannot hate."

I found it very close to me, and also very true. Hate will only consume you and leave the other person untouched while you are full of grief. What good does that do to you?
I find it very hard to let go of things but would rather not bring them up again, but its even worse when someone does something "bad" to me. If what you really want (and what you should really do) is to forget them, kinda like "forgive & forget" which again can be hard to do but at the end only benefits you. And also makes you the bigger person.
