It's kind of hard to explain... Forgiveness is something so powerful... It's kind of like using reverse psychology... The person expects you to the opposite.. Something evil to get revenge.. But instead it makes them ANGRY to see your kindness... Bad explanation probably but that's how i see it.
What is your favourite quote from a book?
“I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.”Atticus Finch, “To kill a mockingbird”“I wondered if that was how forgiveness budded; not with the fanfare of epiphany, but with pain gathering its things, packing up, and slipping away unannounced in the middle of the night.”Khaled Hosseini, “The Kite Runner”“Fancy thinking the Beast was something you could hunt and kill! You knew, didn’t you? I’m part of you? Close, close, close! I’m the reason why it’s no go? Why things are what they are?”William Golding, “Lord of the Flies”Frodo: “I can’t do this, Sam.”Sam: “I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.”Frodo: “What are we holding onto, Sam?”Sam: “That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo… and it’s worth fighting for.”An exchange between Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee, “The two towers (LOTR)”“It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.”Albus Dumbledore, “Harry Potter and the chamber of Secrets”“Love is the world's infinite mutability; lies, hatred, murder even, are all knit up in it; it is the inevitable blossoming of its opposites, a magnificent rose smelling faintly of blood."Tony Kushner, “The Illusion”Ofcourse, these are just a few quotes from books I have personally read and those I remember. There are many, many more.
What does this quote mean? Wise men say: Forgivenesss is divine but never pay full price for a late pizza?
Say the pizza is the person that is apologizing. If they apologize way later than you think they were supposed to, you never forgive them all the way, because that just means you're a doormat. The first part means that forgiving someone is the best thing you can do for the person that is apologizing. So to sum it up, Forgive the person, but not all the way if the apology isn't what you expected.
