Answer to Question 1

Forgiveness is a decision and a choice not to let past grievances compromise our future by filling our mind with negative thoughts and emotions. It is a skill to be learned. When you forgive someone, you make yourself, rather than the person who hurt you, responsible for your future happiness. When we learn to forgive by realizing that our perception is what allows another person to hurt us, and refusing to take offense from others' actions, the consequence is inner peace.

Forgiveness is NOT
1) Pretending everything is fine
2) Stuffing away angry or hurt feelings
