To be able to forgive others, we should first forgive our self.

All of us have some people in our life who we do not like for different reasons. We do not want to talk to them because they have hurt us through their actions.

Instead of ignoring them, we think of plans to get even and let them feel the same pain that they have caused us. It is not a right thing to do.

This is not what our religion teaches us to do. Anger is not something that we should hold in. We should understand that forgiving someone does not make a person weak.

It means that a person is strong and brave enough to forget the mistakes of others. Indeed, forgiving is not an easy task.

Understanding the situation in which other person has lied, understanding the whole situation and trusting the same person again are some of the hard aspects of this subject.

In order to forgive others, it is important to think about the whole situation with a calm mind. The best thing to do is think about what happened and try to understand that why other person would such thing, then it will get easier to decide why he/she should be forgiven.

As a human being, we should accept that it is in human nature to make mistakes. No one is perfect in this world.

Therefore, we should forgive others with big heart instead of taking the issue to heart. If we forget mistakes of others and free our mind from all the negative thoughts then this world would become a happy place to live in peacefully.
