Do you find it easy to forgive?

i found it easier to forgive friends and others who have said or done something than i did some family members. I think it was because i completely trusted and love them, and when they broke that trust, it was very difficult to get it back because these where the people that said they loved me and would always be there for me as i was for them. Sad to say but i do not think i could ever them again simply because they have not changed. I work over forgiveness daily but it doesn't come that easily with a few people. I have moved on and don't think about it much at all because i live my life now as they do theirs. Forgiving someone is easy to say but it really isn't that easy to do at times. To really forgive someone i believe we must trust them once again and this won't happen when some people are just not trust worthy. I think moving on in peace and with ones self is the best way to go and let forgiveness come if and when it's supposed to. Letting go of some people also is freeing and something we have to do sometimes to remain emotionally healthy.

It depends on how light or heavy the situation too. I have gone to many problems and I can say that my past enemies, they are still not forgiven. That is i feel somehow I am carrying an excess baggage or simply means I am still not moving on from the story of my past. I can see and I can look at my enemies straight face, I am still feeling the pain inside whenever I see them and when I die today, they are not still forgiven. These are the people that hurt me and my family so much that it cuts inside us and until now the pain is not healed. I hope God forgave for my statement, I am just being true with myself. Happiness can only free me from feeling this one.

Well, it depends on the circumstances. I find that there are some things that are easier to forgive than others. For me, it really just depends what there is to forgive and who is asking for forgiveness.

It really depends. Forgiveness is the first step to mending what is broken but at the same time, is something broken beyond all repair? That is really something to take into consideration when something bad happens. It could be the straw that broke the camel's back as the saying goes. Everything is piled on more and more and the person keeps pretty much saying that they are sorry, but their actions say otherwise. I think that it is either to forgive than forget. We might try and fix what is broken but at the same time, we might look at the person who caused this situation twice as hard. We might wonder if they are truly sincere or if they are planning to do it again. We do not voice these concerns but we tread a bit more lightly. Therefore, we might forgive the person but there is always a nagging thread of doubt in the back of our mind that taints the relationship we have somewhat. So yeah, I think I can forgive but it might take me a while before I completely trust the person again.

Forgetting and forgiving is the highest quality one should have,but everything depends upon the sensitive situation.I use my mind and then decide. But, a couple of times I observed that people are so cunning these days that they take the undue advantage of our forgiveness, which I did not like.

It really depends on the situation and circumstance. However it is easier to forgive than to forget.

I find it easy to forgive and there are times when I say I wont forgive those people who have hurt me but when I see them I just can't be mad at them forever and I find myself being good to them after the heat is over

Depends on my mood. If I am in a good mood, I could forgive any thing. If I am not in a good mood, then it takes time. But eventually I could forgive anything with time. I too don't like keeping it in mind.

Not that easy, actually. Wow! Right timing! Just had a huge problem with my former friend who messed the whole staff of our HR department. How lame! I was able to forgive her after everything, but the rumors and pain still remain. =(

It all depends on who it is and how bad it is as to if I forgive easily or not. If it was a close friend or something I would find it a little harder to forgive because I trusted them. If it was somebody that I barely knew that did something then it would be easier for me to forgive them. Hope I helped.

I can Forgive just about anything, Provided there is an "I'm sorry." attached to it. If there's no remorse It makes it much more difficult for me to let go of the pain. An apology goes a long way. The little things don't matter so I forgive little things quickly. It's the big stuff like "cheating" or stealing that become hard to forgive.
