The more you are able to forgive then the more you are able to love.

About This Quote

If you are able to forgive the people who wronged you, then it is easier for you to love them. It’s like if someone did something bad to you, you would feel less angry and more forgiving if you knew that this person really wanted to make amends. You wouldn’t be so angry at him or her for what they did. It is the same with love.

If you love people who hurt you, then it is easier for you to want to be around them and forgive them. When someone hurts your feelings, it takes more effort to forgive that person than if that person never hurt your feelings in the first place.
