Forgive but never forget. If you forget, how will you learn your lesson?
Nothing is worse than to forgive and have the person do the same thing to you again.
what goes around, comes around.
what comes around, goes around.
so buddy, don't fred, god reward the kind one
Buddha teach us to forgive, but he did not say forget. In fact he say learn from mistake. You cannot learn from mistake if you forget.On the other hand, Buddha advised us to learn to let go. And Jesus Christ is my hero...
I can forgive but impossible to forget. Few years ago, a month before my wedding, my ex fiancee decide to call it off citing the reason that she has fallen for another man and asked for forgiveness. I took it like a man and let her go and they got married shortly after that.. It hurts so much, my heart and my wallet. Now i'm happily married to a better woman in my life. But the incident still hurts me when i think about it. So i guess forgiving is easy but totally forgetting it is impossible. It happens also that a "friend" borrowed 8k from me. Paid only 2k and gone with the wind. My wife told me to just give it to him for charity. *sigh*
The Bible says:
(Luke 6.29,30)
(38) You know that you have been taught, "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." (39) But I (Jesus) tell you not to try to get even with a person who has done something to you. When someone slaps your right cheek, turn and let that person slap your other cheek. (40) If someone sues you for your shirt, give up your coat as well. (41) If a soldier forces you to carry his pack one mile, carry it two miles. (42) When people ask you for something, give it to them. When they want to borrow money, lend it to them.
(Luke 6.27,28,32-36)
(43) You have heard people say, "Love your neighbors and hate your enemies." (44) But I tell you to love your enemies and pray for anyone who mistreats you. (45) Then you will be acting like your Father in heaven. He makes the sun rise on both good and bad people. And he sends rain for the ones who do right and for the ones who do wrong. (46) If you love only those people who love you, will God reward you for that? Even tax collectors love their friends. (47) If you greet only your friends, what's so great about that? Don't even unbelievers do that? (48) But you must always act like your Father in heaven.
