Forgiving Others

No matter what our families or anybody have done to us, we still need to have a forgiving attitude towards them, in my opinion....  It doesn't mean we have to continue letting them do harm to us, if we can help it....  But holding onto an angry attitude is poisonous toward our own well-being.... People recovering from addictions, especially, need to let go of grudges or it threatens their recovery....

In the civil courts, they don't want people being "vexatious" and making angry accusations.... And the philosopher Aristotle said, "The law is reason, free from passion."  I think we need to be that way in our daily lives, as well, although it can certainly be a challenge....
