do you believe?

Yes, it is true when it is said, but when it is actually practiced it is very untrue.. If you can't forget, you can't forgive... Because if you start to think about what took place, you will become haunted and angry... This makes you resentful and bitter towards the issue..

We are to forgive, but it does not mean in our minds, we can just forget. We should forget. We should forget as far as not bringing it up again to the person that has hurt you. If you are married and your husband huts you in someway, and you forgive him, if you really forgave him, it is your duty to never bring it again. It doesn't mean you forgot about it, but you will not let that sin against you continue to divide both of you. If you bring it up again, it only means you never forgave in the first place. I do not believe anyone expects you to forget such a terrible thing. If you forgive, it can only help you continue with life. Forgiveness is good for our soul.I do not think anyone expects you to forget. Not even God. He knows everyones heart.

creed that sure things cannot be forgotten others others would be well but i do not succeed to us myryam

Sometimes people just say that they forgive just to say that they are forgiving. But they don't really practice the real essence of forgiving the person who has done wrong. Once you forgive the person you must also forget the sins he has done against you but that is what we always lack of. We just forgive but we really never forget. There are also times that we forgive but everytime we are upset we always repeat the words or narate the sins of the person against us which is also wrong. That is not forgiving. In other instance we forget the sins that has done against us but we can't forgive the person because it has hurt us badly. I myself does not believe in any of this since I can just forgive or forget. Just one of it is enough for me and I haven't done forgiving and forgetting or forgetting and forgiving. It was said that once you forgive you must also forget or vice versa but I can't practice it. Its hard to do.

To forgive is not to forget. To forgive is to take back the power to not allow them to hurt you anymore. It is for your benefit. By forgiving you are not letting the hate that they displayed to be part of you and effect your daily life. You deserve to be happy. You can't be happy if you hate. You have the power When you forgive them it does not dismiss what they did ... they are still wrong. There are 2 sayings that are oh so true: What goes around comes around. What you sow, so shall you reap. I know from experience that it is better to forgive ... Look at my avitar LOL.

Mmmm.. it's easy for some people to say that you must forgive and forget everything in the past... for sure, it'snt an easy as they tought coz i've been there... Forgiving in terms that you will deal with your heart that there is no spite and you may continue your life. Believe that both of you had a mistake. If the relationship can not be continued, and should be over, just make it over.. i know how hard to mend the pieces of broken heart.. so that we need to take it and deal it.... forgive doesn't meant to forget... offcourse, we are just a human being... just take the lesson from our last relationship.. minimize the mistake so that it wouldn't happen again.. the key is to take it and deal it.

I do believe about forgiving. But to forget, in the real sense and literal meaning of it, well, unless you have an amnesia, how can you forget? Maybe when we say forgive and forget, forget as in not thinking about it anymore, or not repeatedly mentioning it. Because it could spoiled the relationship again(if we're speaking of relationship) if we keep on bringing up the past mistakes. I think you don't have to forget. On the contrary, you can keep it in mind as a lesson or a reminder not to do the same mistake again. Only keep it IN your mind... not bringiing it up over and over again to the one you have forgiven. That's what I thought.

maybe, maybe not.. if you had forgiven already, then why bring back the situation right? like.. "just forget it, its over.. i forgive you" and then its the same old relationship again.. :D ciao!
