two elements are present:–Conversion: a change of heart
and a reorientation of one’s life–Forgiveness: a willingness to let
go of the desire for revenge and instead seek what is truly best for the person being forgiven

ConversionConversionThere are three components to conversion:1) Contrition: the recognition that one
committed a harmful act and feeling sorry for that action
2) Confession: telling the person(s) you hurt that what you did was wrong, and confessing to others
3) Correction: making up for the wrongdoing
