What is Forgiveness and Why is it Important

What is forgiveness and why is it important? If I asked you to imagine what “peace” looked like, what would you envision? Maybe you see a scene in nature, a hippie next to an old Volkswagen bus, or a monk in a monastery. Whatever your mind imagines, I’m sure it’s accompanied by a quiet stillness. This is the equivalent of your mind when you embrace forgiveness. In its simplest definition, to forgive is stop feeling angry or resentful towards someone for an offense, flaw, or mistake. What’s the opposite of feeling peaceful? Feeling resentful and angry. It’s like comparing a dove and a war tank.
