Being able to forgive.

Being able to forgive is a very useful trait of character which is directly related to the ability to love and to live life to one’s fullest potential. If we are talking about forgiving a person for something meaningless, for something that does not really matter, most people would prefer to forget the past and to accept a simple “I am sorry” as an excuse. However, a lot of people can hold quite a few old grudges resulting from these people being betrayed by a close friend or a relative. Such grudges can also result from the people being unhappy with themselves. The point is that such emotional wounds can heal fairly quickly; i.e. they will not bother a person anymore. However, in order to achieve such a result a person must leave the past behind. Practice has shown that when you get rid of the burden of resentment, the quality of your life and your health can and will show tremendous improvement.

Why you should learn to forgive

Medical studies confirm that the people who are incapable of forgiveness suffer from various stress-related diseases much more often than the people who are able to forgive.
