About This Quote

If we studied the issue of forgiveness with a wider perspective, we are bound to opt for it after all. This quote is about the power of forgiveness. The power to forgive someone for an offense or wrong that may have been done to you. In this situation, I’m talking about forgiveness from the person that wronged you, not from God or some higher power.

We all know that there are people in this world who do wrong to others and then expect them to forgive them. For some reason, they think that just because they did something wrong that others should do the same thing. It doesn’t work like that.

If you were wronged by someone, you shouldn’t want to do things right back at them. That would be foolish and unfair on your part. Instead, try forgiving them and move on.
