A lot of people says that it is not easy to forgive. But observe this, when you are happy it is actually easier to let go of your anger and grudges. You will forget how it feels to be angry because the happiness is overwhelming. Bottom line is: It's easier to forgive when you're truly happy. And so when you are, take time to forgive everyone possible for you to have a lighter baggage in life.

It's hard to forgive someone. Moreover, we are in a state of anger. In anger, all so difficult to control. Instead, we eliminate our anger first. We can eliminate anger, keeping in mind, the good he has already done it to us.

I think what you said is actually very sensible. Sometimes we as humans tend to focus more on the wrong doings of others and overlook the good things they have done. By thinking of the good, we may actually appreciate that person and decrease the feeling of anger towards that person.

Yes. We as a human, more often seen on the bad things, rather than about something good. We must always learn, to see the good, from the ugliness. The enemy is very easy to get, but it is very difficult to find a friend.

Forgiveness depends upon the situation when the mistake was done by someone.. If that mistake cause you no loss means it is very easy to forgive them but if that mistake costs you so much problem then it is hard to forgive them... But forgiving the mistake is the great thing one can do so that they can be compared to god. Hope all forget our losses and forgive other .

Very well said my friend. Although forgiving may be hard, forgiving is indeed a great thing and is indeed comparable to Godliness. Everybody can commit sins, but not everyone can forgive

Forgive is not hard but I think concrete problem need a concrete analysis,if some one hurt you very deeply and cause a severe damage to you,if it is me,I will not forgive this person easily,may be I will hate he/she for a very very long time unless he/she do a lot to recover and save the relationship.And of course if it is not a serious thing and someone do this without intention,then I will forgive this person easily.

Dear Friend, I do understand that it is hard to forgive sometimes, specially if the impact is very great. But I hope one day you'll find it in your heart to forgive eventually.
