IS IT WORTH FORGIVING?steemCreated with Sketch.

Do you think it's worth forgiving? Interesting question!

I recently wrote something about forgiveness and the truth I felt like writing more. I'm sure that many people have had to forgive someone for a mistake or simply live with that grudge inside.

I feel a little identified by that situation because I consider that many years ago I lived with that feeling and the truth was not at all pleasant, today I think a little different, it is worth letting go of certain things in that case feelings that simply destroy us inside.

I know it's not an easy step, sometimes we think it's illogical to forgive someone who hurt us and who did it without feeling any remorse, but now I say, it's worth living with all that inside? Is it worth destroying ourselves for someone else? I DON'T THINK SO!

I think it's an act of courage, where we have to be mature enough to be able to understand and accept someone else's mistake and on top of that forget what happened, or maybe not forget but let it go.

It is an act of love towards ourselves, because? because by letting go of that feeling of resentment or that which does not hurt we are freeing ourselves from all those bad thoughts and we are giving peace of mind and body. Nothing like being healthy not only physically but mentally as well.

I believe that knowing how to FORGIVE puts us above many people, makes us mentally superior, makes us more intelligent and also makes us more Happy, I believe that for all that is worth learning to forgive.

If we don't let go of all that hurts us we will never be really happy people, we will never be free, we will be trapped for a long time in our thoughts.

Obviously there are situations that perhaps one says, everything has a limit, and it is something unforgivable, but I think that depends on each one of us, how we see life and how we want to live ours, if we want to live full of anger and resentment or just the opposite. IT'S OUR DECISION.

I am not saying that we should forgive everything that is done to us, I am just saying that everyone is free to decide what to do in a situation like that, if a person asks you for forgiveness believe me that it was also difficult for him to do it, because I think that these are things that have to be valued in certain circumstances. It's just my opinion. As they say, we all have the right to a second chance, don't you think?

On the other hand many will say ok I'm sorry but I still feel like nothing happened? No, I'm not saying that, obviously forgiving someone doesn't necessarily have to imply that we forget what they did to us, I'm just talking about freeing both of us, him or her from guilt and us from resentment, it's allowing us to keep moving forward without any weight on our shoulders, without anything that hurts or makes us feel bad.

Just to be free...

Thanks for reading me!!

It's been said that if you do not forgive Person X for hurting you, then the only one you are continues to suffer is yourself.

That is, in most cases, Person X will not care the slightest if you do not forgive. Meanwhile, you continue to carry a festering burden of anger and resentment.

Forgive and forget, and more past it. That's the best response, and the only way to behave.

You're so right, I think the same thing!

I have been in very difficult situations to forgive, I am an highly emotional person who gives my complete love and trust to people I associate myself with so whenever they hurt me I feel my heart tearing into pieces but I have learnt the great power of forgiveness even before they ask me to forgive them, I do that already but on some occasions I stay away in order to avoid repeated hurt.

Nice words buddy, thanks for stopping by!

These are two difficult actions to do, to ask for forgiveness and to forgive, but they both set us free. I believe that we all face a situation sometime when we must forgive another person, and learning to do so is the best thing we can do, since a grudge hurts the one who is sorry more than the one who committed the fault.

Thank you very much for your comment!

We come across various situations in life and meet many people. Some people hurt through their actions or words. It's not easy to forgive sometimes but if person come forward and ask to forgive then I think its better to forgive and move on in life

I have been in difficult situations to forgive, but from the heart I tell you that if it is worth forgiving and being forgiven too, the person suffering less is not easy to accept the problems. Greetings I love your post

Thank you for your comment!

Hello,...In truth, forgiveness is a decision that only the brave are willing to make. Forgiveness takes time but it is possible to achieve it, and more than benefiting the person who has hurt you, you benefit yourself because you break those chains of oppression and bitterness that come with resentment. Therefore, if forgiveness is worthwhile

That's what I think, we have to think about our welfare!

Forgiving and forgiving is an act mental health, because otherwise you will taking with you emotions that prevent you from focusing and moving on It is quite difficult to do, I have spent years trying to forgive someone and I haven't managed to do it I guess eventually when I feel ready I will.

That's how it is, my friend. We have to get rid of everything that hurts us.

The act of forgiveness is an immediate purifier of our interior, when we live with a grudge we can never be completely happy, it is important to forgive as that tool that allows us to turn the page and make a new life. Greetings and thank you for sharing this excellent scripture.

That's right, buddy, thanks for stopping by.

Forgiveness is one of the most benevolent acts of the human race. However, it is sometimes very difficult to forgive someone (depending on what the person has done to you). But still, it is a way to get rid of a pain that does not belong to you.

You're so right buddy, thanks for stopping by and commenting!

The love we have for ourself will guide us toward a healthy resolution in all situations. When we are safe and secure in who we are, we can free ourselves from the supposed restraints of others. Whether emotional or physical. That safety applies to both people in the situation. Thanks for sharing this topic!

Thanks for your comments!

Forgiving is great, but if it is personal and you have to forgive the same person for the same mistake... this can be stupidity too :p

Hmmm.... I must say this is really deep and at the same time informative but I think there are times whereby we can actually forgive in some situations depending on the gravity of what the person might have done and this is why some people will tell you they can forgive but can't forget.

Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead
