To make a better place...

Forgive and Forget

“All we are saying is give peace a chance…”

            At first, you would just think that this is just an ordinary line from a common song. But as go between the words, you would realize the essence behind the song. This song by the English vocalist John Winston Lennon in 1969 reminds me of what is really meant by forgiving.

                In life where nuisance keeps on hindering us, forgiving and forgetting are the two words which should be put into our minds and hearts. Nowadays, most of us stumble upon hullabaloos and controversies which have been thrown to us by the traitors. As what the lyrics say, we should and we must forget all those arguments for peace to make a way into our lives.

                Every one of us has their own share of life’s ups and downs. On the onslaught of our journey towards success, it’s just innate for us to encounter traitors who’ll try to make our lives even more miserable. They will never bring tribulations to a halt. Instead, they keep on persisting till one time we sometimes give up and surrender. But there’s still a way to alleviate this worsening scenario; and this is to forgive them and overlook their own shares of mistakes upon you. 

                 I guess, forgetting is undeniably the best thing to forgive someone. If you learn how to overlook what had they made unto you, then peace will always find a way to our lives. Unquestionably, live would always be at its best when there’s peace and love, isn’t it?  So we should always find ways to let go of their transgressions and forgive them, for vengeance is not ours, it’s God’s and forgiving makes life wonderful and worth living.
