Forgiveness

How often do you see it happen? It's getting a lot less frequent nowadays, and most of them doing it are parents, trying to be as compassionate as reasoning allows, and because a lot of children just love to make stupid mistakes. The only real forgiveness will only come with forgetting what really happened. It's really a good countermeasure against morons who wouldn't learn. Sure, everyone makes mistakes, but do they change right after?

A lot wouldn't, not without the right incentives. Some don't even want the forgiveness of others. These are the people who are truly alone, and enjoys solitude, a sociopath.

Then there are those who take forgiveness for granted, and repeat the same mistakes again, hoping subconsciously that they will be forgiven. These are what we call dumbheaded jackasses.

Then there are worse, those that throw them back, deny all that they have done, twisting the words, turning the table and put the blame on someone else. The worst of the lot. I know this sounds clichéd, but calling them morons will be an insult to morons everywhere.

Then there are those who repent, and keeps it that way. Then in the end, people call them wussies, just following the whim of others. Who are the real wussies in the end? Those who admit their mistakes, and make a change? Or those who deny their mistakes, and keeps on making them?

Besides, it takes plenty of courage to even ask for forgiveness. You know you did something wrong, and would that conscience in you wants you to ask for forgiveness? or blame yourself on your wrongdoing? Looking at the person that you have wronged, how would you feel? Would you just say "I am sorry"? Or "Forgive me"? Or would you just prefer to stick yourself to the corner, hoping not to cross his or her eyes? It's sad to be alone, and to be hated, because of one stupid mistake. I had my share of experiences, had you?

It takes a lot to ask for forgiveness, and a couple of times more to forgive. We make mistakes, and life is all about learning to be a better person. Holding yourself down over one mistake, or over someone else's mistake is not really a good direction for a healthy lifestyle, so just be careful not to make too many of them, and learn from them, and change, then adapt. Acquire the right mindset, then you will find the world a better place.
