Forgiveness

I quote from the Slice of Life:

People who focus on revenge don't allow their wounds to heal. They never quite recover from the transgression, because in order to fan the flame of revenge, they have to keep their wounds open? better still, make them bigger and allow them to fester. Old hurts tend to become more and more grievous when we allow them to bubble and boil in our cauldron of resentment.

People with a strong desire for revenge miss out on many good things in life. They often only see the ugly, the unjust, and the irredeemable. They add to the anger and hatred in the world, of which, if you haven't already noticed, we have in great abundance.

Usually, one does not purposely act to anger another. Usually its through ignorance or just some self-preservation mechanism. However, nursing these grudges could be detrimental to one's health.

I would say that this is easy to say, but hard to do. Even if you do not purposely harbor the grudge, what has been done will be somewhere in the back of your mind, and it will affect your thinking.

Bottom line... Try to resolve all problems amicably with one another. Sometimes, things very often will come back to haunt you later on. Forgiveness is one, but it must come with "education". Educating that what was done was wrong. One's patience is finite.

Like what I say last time... Growing up sucks.
