Forgiveness is something that for many people depending on the severity of what is being forgiven can sometimes be hard to do. Forgiveness can be something that for some is not even imaginable at the time because of all the anger or resentment built up inside of them. I do know though that sometimes forgiveness is the cure for hat resentment and the feeling that you may never have the same life you once did. By giving forgiveness it can lift that weight off your shoulders to allow you not to forget about the past but to move on and be at peace with it. This does not work for everyone though some things just can never come to peace with people. I know that for me and others that at times it is hard to forgive someone who doesn't ask for forgiveness either. I feel like they are the ones who should be wanting to forgiveness but sometimes just going to that person to give forgiveness can be key to getting the weight of regret and pain off you. I know that forgiveness is practiced by religions such as Christianity and Jew-deism. I also know that forgiveness does not come without justice they work hand and hand.

Why is forgiveness necessary for some?

  • For people who have battled over the feeling that their lives will never be the same and that their lives are ruined due to the actions of another person, forgiveness can be very important if not necessary. In some cases forgiveness is the only way to come to peace with what has happened and ti move on in life. By forgiving someone it can lift all the weight that has been dwelling on your shoulders so long. Although what happened may never be forgotten you will be able to come peace with what did and be able to move in in life.
