Your enemy asking for forgiveness...would you do that?

I will be happy to forgive them, but based on how serious the matter is. I like people who accept their wrongdoings and apologize from the person involved.

I will forgive. It's a very rare and very special person who is able to admit a wrongdoing and asks for forgiveness.

i think i will... i always think that since i myself am a sinful person and my God had already forgiven me of all my sins, why shouldn't i do the same as well to my enemies??? i am still an enemy to God when He forgiven my sins by coming into this world to die on the cross for me... so whenever i think i can't forgive other people, i will think about His love and i will be ashamed of myself... i know it is easier than done... but i am trying though... take care and have a nice day...

Forgiving is very hard, especially when people have done things deliberately to hurt you. I would choose to forgive because it's the right thing to do. I say "choose" because I feel very strongly that especially in cases where the "enemy" was successful in hurting you in some way, that forgiving is a choice, not a feeling. To clarify, if someone bumps into you and spills some food or coffee on your clothes, they say "I'm sorry" and you say "it's OK" and the incident is just brushed off. Not a big deal, you can wash your clothes, and it was an accident, they didn't set out to get your clothes dirty. However, if someone is very deliberately saying hurtful things to you or about you with the intent to hurt you or create problems for you, it is not possible to brush it off. Emotions are very tricky things, you can't always control them the way you would like to. I actually have some experience in this area. I have a relative who has made it clear that I "did not turn out right" by which she means I personality didn't turn out right, and that I do not think for myself, I let a couple of other people control my very opinions. She has never indicated she is sorry for what she has done to me and my mother, but I forgive her. There are only two options, forgiveness and bitterness, the later ruins your day every time you are reminded of the person toward whom you are bitter, there is no point in that. However, I must say that even though I forgive her, it still hurts when I do get reminded of what has been said, I can not honestly say I enjoy being around her. There is always a sense of unease, that I will make a mistake, choose the wrong word, make the wrong facial expression and have my mother receive the flack for it. In choosing to forgive, I choose not to let her control me or alter how I feel about myself as a person.

The act of forgiveness is not just say: " I forgive you". You have to forgive. And to forgive, all the bad things has to be forgotten. And isn't that easy because it depends on the situation. I could forgive or just say that I'll try to.

Depends on the matter whether its serious or not ...but he is accepting his wronglyness...cant say wt happens at that time dude

I am going through a situation as of right now that this discussion talks about and ya know as much as the person is in such denial of it all lying to authorities and all I know they have done it and I will forgive them when they are found guilty of their actions but I won't forget they ever did it. I honestly don't know why people have to be like this and expect to get away with it and not have no guilt feeling on their behalf knowing they have done such a thing as they have. To top it all off it's my own family that has doe this to me and that's the worst part of it. It's a sad thing some of us must go through but in the end I would forgive them for I know that's what god would want me to do.

Actually I don't have any enemies. If I have any enemy in future if he/she ask for forgiveness I definitely forgive them. Once they find their mistake they would not do that mistake in future. I feel happy at that time because there are no enemies to me. Actually I don't want to make enemies. If some one mischiefs about me I will explain his/her mistake. Happy to share. Happy myLotting.

i will forgive him if he surrenders his mistakes and promise that it will never happen in future.No one in this world is a thief or enemy because of bad situation a person turns himself as an enemy to survive.He too would like to live a life full of peace but conditions makes him think bad.Forgiving a person also removes burden from our heart we too will feel happy to do good if we don't forgive him there will be no difference between enemy and us.
