Can you forgive easily? Is sorry an easy word?

it's the attitude and the habit but no good or bad.
A man never saying sorry won't be welcomed by many people,and certainly less friends.Equality is important.If you do something wrong badly but not say sorry,what would your friends think of you?Fair play is needed.

I forgive easily and saying sorry is easy to me.But for most of the people saying sorry seems to be very easy without meaning it.

I think it is important to forgive others, even if they do not ask for or seek forgiveness.
I am always quick to ask God for mercy, so then, who am I to not be merciful to my fellow man for their injuries against me?

Hi Princess,

Yes, I think age has alot to do with it. I'm a stubborn person too and always have been. But as time passes, I'm realizing something new. At least to me. Other people make mistakes too. LOL. That may seem odd to say, and in a way it is to me, but I've lived my life only thinking of My mistakes, not realizing that some of the things people did that hurt me were mistakes as well. This "new found intellect" has litterally changed the way I view people and makes it much easier to not only say, " I'm sorry ", but also to accecpt it when someone else says it.

Thanks for the post,,

Hello dear princess. I think that I can forgive easily. I won't remember it for long. But if it is someone who has hurt me and spread rumors against me, it is not so easy. I will just try to be away from the person with as little as communication as possible. I used to have such a colleague, but it is ok for us now as we are working in different sections. Seemingly, we still greet each other when seeing each other, but I am glad that we seldom have a chance to see each other. lol

It all depends on the person who hurt me, and like you said also; it depends on what they did and the severity of it. I can usually forgive someone but it takes me a long time, especially if trust is involved. Even if I do forgive, rarely do I forget!
Saying that I am sorry is difficult for me to do. I do it though. Sometimes, depending on who it is, I do it in a written format. Writing down my thoughts comes easier to me.

The whole "I can forgive but I won't forget" cliche, Well that is me all the way. I find that I can forgive people in pretty much any situation no matter how big or small it is. But most things I never forget. I make sure I remember these things because I find that I won't get hurt as easily in the future thus not even having to worry about forgiving people because I avoid the problem.

I say sorry too much and forgive too easilly. I mostly mean it when I say it though. I'm alsways worried people will think ill of me otherwise.

It depends on what the person did....I had people in my life who did some pretty bad things to me and I have NEVER forgiven them and I never will....I did not deserve what they did to me and I would never have done the same to them therefore they were not worthy enough for an apology. I can forgive when it is something minor or not serious.

sometimes yes but most of the times... yes. You must love your enemies. Even God loved His enemies.
