Forgiveness
To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.
56 Try the following steps:
Calm yourself. 57 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.
Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don‟t see things the same way. 58 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.
Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your mounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness
around you.
59 If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.
Don’t forget to forgive yourself. 60 But it can rob you of yourself-confidence if you don’t do it.
A. Try to see things from you offender’s angle.
B. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.
C. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.
D. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.
E.Why should you forgive?
F. How should you start to forgive?
G.If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.

Question: Why is it so hard for some people to apologize after they’ve done something wrong? I have made every effort to persuade my uncle to be nice to people that he knows he’s hurt. 【小题1】 How I wish things would be better if he’d just say he’s sorry and ask them to forgive him.
Answer: 【小题2】 It’s just easier for him to pretend nothing happened than to face the embarrassment of admitting he was wrong. You’ve probably done the same thing yourself at some time. In fact, most of us have. Furthermore, what if others won’t forgive him even if he apologizes?
【小题3】 Pride blinds us to our mistakes or faults. Or at least it makes us pay less attention to their seriousness.
Pride also makes us unwilling to admit to others that we were wrong. Perhaps we’re afraid they will look down on us if we admit it. 【小题4】
But others see through our pride. And things would be far better if we admitted our faults and asked for forgiveness. 【小题5】
Now you know why your uncle refuses to apologize, talk to him again. Help him to learn how to apologize and ask for forgiveness from others.
| A.But a deeper reason is pride. |
| B.But he just refuses to do that. |
| C.We may even hope that somehow they will overlook it. |
| D.As a result, you would offend others and hurt their feelings. |
