Gandhi said, the weak can never forgive, forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
And Jesus said, you cannot conquer the devil unless you use a power that is stronger than the devil and disagrees with the will of the devil
So I believe to forgive somebody, you have to be stronger then them in moral power, because you have to be big enough to absorb their moral attacks, without being angered and offended in the process or without seeking retaliation due to not feeling threatened by them.
I believe that to be true from my own experience. if I let what people and my family has done to me bother me and if I held a grudge, or wanted revenge, it would only hurt me. I let it all go and I gave it to God. God makes me feel good inside and good about me. I don't have to behave like I'm treated. I treat people like I want to be treated and how I know how to behave even when I'm being lied to my face.
Yup. Forgiveness is not a simple attribute. It needs inner strength. It needs calmness.

"forgiveness" releases the person doing the "forgiving"... the person being forgiven probably doesn't even care that they did something to you... When you "forgive" you let go of the "hurt and anger"... This allows you to "forget" what that "Idiot" did to you... and you can "move on"... the "Idiot" probably hasn't had a second thought about you... So... Forgive... set yourself FREE
To forgive somebody it has to be real it has to come your heart only then you will know the difference between your strengths New Freedom
