my parents recently divorced. i'm 14, and im old enough to understand their divorce was not about me or my sister. however, he has been abusive both physically and emotionally to me and my mother for as long as i can remember... i even called the cops on him once. he lives a few minutes away now in an apartment, but i havent gone to visit him at all since the divorce 2 weeks ago. i hope i can find it in my heart to forgive him like my sister has, but its so hard.

Forgiveness is a trait everyone needs because its what holds the country's of the world together. People should always learn to forgive and forget, because forgiveness allows you to move on to better things to greater dreams and stronger relationships.

Your life experience IS what it IS and ISN'T what it ISN'T - so don't make your life experience what it ISN'T...ie...don't turn your life experience into marvelous dramas or into horror stories. EMBRACE life - LOVE it - LIVE it! (forgive and forget what you can't) You'll be surprised what a difference it makes!

Forgiveness is hard, but you have to take the simplest step first, that is to be willing to have a relationship.do you want to be right or do you want to have a relationship?

When we are able to accept that we don't have to be perfect, we can move towards more consistently forgiving ourselves. Doing so allows us to be more vulnerable and our defenses naturally come down. When defenses come down, we are able to relate more authentically with our fellow human beings. Out of this type of relating comes joy, love and peace.

Being forgiven is love. Forgiving oneself is empowering, and may be the first step toward learning to love by healing the actions of the head and revealing the truth of the heart.

Como diria a música de Ludmila Ferber: "É preciso pedir e dar perdão, é preciso perder pra ganhar". How would the music of Ludmila Ferber: "You have to ask and give forgiveness, you must lose to win."

Forgiveness is something that you can't pretend to do, you can say you forgive a person but you must mean it with everything inside of you.

Forgiveness sets you free! It allows for hope to return to you and the person forgiven to not enslave you.

Forgiveness brings more peace to your soul than to the person you forgave. Anger and resentment hold you back, forgiveness moves you forward.

Forgiveness cannot be earned or achieved by the wrongdoer--it can only be granted or given by the one done wrong.

I agree that forgiveness is hard to do. However, holding on to anger or pain for a lifetime is more difficult.
Ethar Hamid from Sterling, Virginia FEBRUARY 16, 2011
It's important to forgive someone not only for his own comfort, but for yours, too. Why be angry if you have the choice to forgive instead? To forgive and forget is always the best thing to do.

I showed forgiveness when I forgave the bully's who beat me up and made my life miserable. When they asked for my forgiveness I did forgave them.

Forgiveness isn't forgetting what was done, but remembering all the pain inflicted and letting the person live on, unmarked with your resent.
