My two sisters-in-law are in quandary. they fought of some things out of misunderstandings. it actually happened twice already. One of my sister-in-law who were involved in it could not hep but find a way to fix things up and so she sought help from me and my husban. It came to my realization when her husband said "when you wanted reconciliation it should come from yourself meaning you shall not expect the person who hurts you to say sorry for you but instead you make the first move and say sorry to your foe". I agree because in that sense you are not just forgiving that person whou hurt you but you also have forgiven yourself as well because you also fought back at her...How about you, what is reconciliation for you? Do you also agree with me?

No I disagree.
I have never hate anyone in my life, because I believes that people does mistakes and I have to understand that one day I would do the same mistake. I considered myself as a very patient person. But when I hated someone, it means that she/he has gone too much out of the line, and of course I would fight back not only for my pride but also for my life in future.
If she/he tried to destroy my life, there's no such things like saying sorry and forgiving him/her and giving the second chance... I'd rather have an enemy than taking a risk to be backstabbed twice with the same person
