Here is an interesting article in Psychology Today about the increase in our capacity to forgive as we age: www.psychologytoday.com/blog/ulterior-mo...

Does your experience confirm this article's claim?

I hope its true! 

I'm not quite 72 but I learned something from my stepgrandmother years ago. She would always say, "Think about what that will mean ten years from now." I also learned on my own that carrying grudges doesn't hurt anybody but the carrier. I refuse to make myself that miserable. And I care enough about others that I don't want to make them any more miserable than they make themselves. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting however. I'll forgive but I will remain wary.
