Could you forgive someone who shot you?

Yes, but what is it about that choice that makes you happy? Why does that appeal to you and make you feel good? Please know that I am not asking so that I can be judgmental about it. It just seems (to me) like a most unhappy way to view the subject.

Does leaving everything you do to physics absolve you of responsibility somehow? Does it leave you with a blissful lack of concern for results? What exactly are the happy things that result for you from your belief that free will does not exist?
