FORGET AND FORGIVE
We are advised and preached by our elders to follow the advice,"Forget &forgive."It means we should forget the wrong perpetrated upon us and forgive the wrong doer.According to this,we should do nothing and sit yammering with unbridled fury.Though it is pretty difficult to do it, yet it is possible to let go of our sense of anger and resentment.If we brood over the situation,it is possible to feel the past is past,that continuing to feel anger and hatred serves no purpose.Instead of changing the situation,they give rise to further disturbance within our minds which is a source of our continued unhappiness.
We may still remember what happened,but forgetting and forgiving are two entirely different things.Simply remembering what happened is not harmful,but with the development of forgiveness,it's possible to let go of the negative feelings associated with what took place.This is why forgiveness brings us freedom.
Forgiveness is not about letting off the perpetrator of some evil,it is about freeing the victim.If you can forgive,you no longer have to concern yourself with who did what to you and how you are going make them pay for it.You will be free of that entire burden
