As children we are closer to our feelings and we are motivated to repair our broken relationships by forgiving because we rather be friends and play together. Being able to truly forgive is more of a possibility when we are able to be in touch with our innocence. Dag Hammarskjold says this well: "Forgiveness is the answer to the child’s dream of a miracle by which what is broken is made whole again, what is soiled is made clean again.” But then, it can be easier to forgive others then our own selves since it often requires us to let go of our unforgiving selves.
