Assumptions of forgiveness

-Karthik Gurumurthy

Lot of us mention freely we have forgiven somebody for what they have done. But in our mind, we think and tell ourselves secretly and unknowingly, "I have forgiven but not forgotten". That is not  complete forgiveness.

When we say we forgive somebody, what is being understood is as follows:

  • I would not dwell on this episode.
  • I would not bring up this episode again and use it against you.
  • I will not talk to others about this episode
  • I will not allow this episode to stand between us or hinder our relationship.

Let us be loud and clear on that. One of my business associate Sajid Sayed  says "Forgiveness is a blessing for the one who forgives as well as for the one who is forgiven."
