I have a great respect for the bravery of those girls, but this was something that shouldn't have happened and ideally, you don't want to have bravery shine in the face of tragedy and unfortunately that was the case here.
It takes superhuman strength, divine strength to find even an ounce of forgiveness for the loss of a loved one at the hands of another. Instinctively, we would react out of great anger and vengeance even, wanting retribution on those who have harmed us, but I also have a profound respect for people who can find it in their hearts to forgive, to some extent and in this case, complete forgiveness, the person at fault.
