Do not forgive is to be prisoner of the past, of some old complaints that do not allow life to go forward with something new. Do not forgive means to which it exercises control over another you, to you lock in a sequence of action-reaction, the anger of revenge, in a clash increasingly stronger, as this would be forever overcome and devoured by the past. Forgiveness frees the forgiver of fantasy in the past. Forgiveness is not an attitude sudden, deep, fast. As a wound does not heal unless you put a bandage on it, no forgiveness does not happen when a tear-filled retrievals. Forgiveness is a journey, a complex process.
You can forgive?

The only rule that you should follow about forgiveness is - forgive the doer but do not forget what wrong was done and by whom. That way you would be safer in the future.
I dont remember anything malicious for long and this is why I do not use terms like Hate, or even anger - the two never come to me easily as I always believe in forgiving. A strength of course and not all can do really practice it.
Yes, I am egoistic about this, as it is a rare quality that I have learned to grow for my good

To forgive means and forgetting. The principle that annoyed me a long time, but I realized in time that you can forgive without forgetting. Forgiveness involves the ability to continue to see him in the eye that you made ??a mistake, without bringing reproach, the ability to sit face to face would not like nothing happened, but at the same time the consciousness of the past. The only way to look, would be nonexistent memory and emotional memory is one of the most powerful. Memory is what we play history, and one that helps us orient our way today to the future.
Thanks for response.

I am a person who doesn't easily forgive. I wait for a change in attitude, which showed remorse.

Forgiveness is quite difficult for me to give. I can forgive. Sometimes, it takes seconds, minutes, hours and sometimes years. It depends on their fault. We have to forgive so that we can move on to our lives with some peace of mind. Happy myLotting!

People have the power to heal souls by forgetting. Forgiveness is equivalent to forgetting. Hiding somewhere in a corner of the mind, that story that made ??you suffer. A good shoe behind heavy doors, imaginary and leave there. While the wound that has caused you heal. But sometimes see the scar and it reminds you. If you recall causes resentment and pain, then, obviously, did not manage to forgive.
Sometimes forgive easily. This is because we want to go over all the suffering caused by awareness explanations. And yes, forgive, according to the seriousness of the facts, but this is arguably the case.
Thanks for response.

Lets not forget that forgiveness is a two way street. If one is to forgive then the other should as well. But in some cases both don't always apply. I do not really believe in forgiveness. You see, I have reason not to forgive a certain person. And that is my choice, I know that. But some things just cannot be forgiven in this world. And I also do not agree that not forgiving makes us more angry over time. I can let go, believe me, I basically write the person off. But the actions of the other person is what I am talking about. Those actions cannot not be redone, or eliminated. Therefore forgiving them is impossible.
