There are those people who say bad things about others and there are those few who have been blessed to hold their tongue. I cannot proudly lift my head up and say that I have not said a bad word or two, I have. But I can proudly say that I had apologised after.
My mum always said to my sister and I , "If you have nothing good to say about somebody, don't speak at all" as well as "Think before you say anything, it gives you time to realize whether its something good or bad"
Nobody likes a nasty bitter person, they will always be remembered that way. No matter how upset we get, the impression we leave, is the lasting one.
At some point in everybody's life we will come across people who we will not like. Either they will say something bad about you, say something bad to you or even insult your loved ones. They could be the jeolous kind, who enjoy making you look bad or even steal something very dear to you. It could be any reason that will make you almost hate them for a long time.
The point is when you look at your reason for holding that hate, it seems pretty stupid to carry with for the rest of your life. The more hate you carry, the longer the burden to endure. It is easier to forgive and forget than to remember forever. For those who find it hard to forgive, at lease try to forget.
BASIC TRUTH: Smile at the face of grudge and it shall run away!
