To forgive. Sooner or later you get to the stage where you'll forgive those who did you wrong for both of your sakes, when you're ready. You'll feel relief of finally letting go of that grudge you were holding (or whatever that was) and you'll feel as if the burden was taken off of your shoulders. It'll bring you peace within yourself.
But to forget? Nah, no matter how hard you try the only thing you can't do with the experience you've been through is to erase it from your memory. Don't know exactly how it works, but events that brought you some negative emotions, they'll stick with you. The might get blurry with time, sometimes get blocked by the brain itself, but they won't completely evaporate. And here comes another thing, your attitude towards it. But that's the story for another day.
So, yeah, to forgive is definitely much easier.
