What is Forgiveness?

What is Forgiveness? - Forgiveness to me is the kindness and selflessness to stop being angry at someone for a wrongdoing. Forgiving someone involves understanding that everyone makes mistakes and that people are prone to doing wrong things to others because they are human. Forgiveness means that you let go of a person because of how they treated you or how they made your day bad or how they hurt your feelings. Forgiveness involves selflessness and courage because these two qualities combined can lead to really good outcomes. Forgiveness is extremely important because with it we can become happier and grudge free. Holding a grudge against someone is often very hard on ourselves and requires lots of energy and anger. If we let go of a grudge, our anger will be released and we will be able to lead a life that is better because of our release of our pent up anger. Forgiveness can go a long way in making our lives smoother and less painful. Forgive and love other people.
