@ Owlet, nice read. Forgiveness is very important if you want to be happy. As Buddha said, bringing anger to show contempt over someone is like putting a burning coal in one's hand and expecting the other to get hurt! The coal will burn your hand, instead. Similarly, all anger leads to violence if not controlled in time, which disturbs our peace of mind over the long run. Humans should learn something beautiful from animals and small babies: animals and small babies enjoy this moment without letting ego interfering on them. So they are far happier than adult humans! Forgiving is not a sign of weakness. Only those people can forgive who are strong enough and whose heart is an ocean of infinite mercy! This quality only comes when one moves beyond the ego mind.
