The Power of Forgiveness

At the end of the news story An Amish Massacre, we read that "community leaders sent a representative to express forgiveness" and one of the victims' father showed his mercy and compassion to the Roberts family by saying "please tell them that they are in our prayers." What can we learn from this shooting masscare? If a friend does something mean (bad) to you, do you want to hurt him as much as he hurt you? Do you wish you could get even? Have you forgiven your friend? (進應一甲, 企一甲.乙)

From this shooting masscare, I learn "A person's mind can be so benevolent unexpectedly". Perhaps we can do it too.

I cannot want to hurt him as much as he hurt me, but I am unable to forgive him. Maybe afterward I can attempt to forgive him.

I have learned a matter from this shooting masscare:the retaliation is not the only method,forgiveness sometimes also is very important.If a friend does something mean bad to me,I will be able to forgive her.Some two reasons.First,she is my friend;second,the human should have to have the spacious heart.

It's not easy to forgive someone, no matter what they done. For me, I won't get even with my friend who did something mean to me. I might be angry at that moment,though. Getting even with someone is childish, besides, it cannot solve everything. Try to forgive someone is really a lesson.

I learned in this masscare that was "How to learn forgiveness to someome who has been hurt you ."
If my friends who hurt me like that,I don't know how to do at the first time, but maybe I will ignoring her. Get even with her/him that I think it wasn't meaningful! So making our heart peace is important to our life.

I think it's not easy to forgive someone who does something mean to me. It depends. If he or she didn't hurt me so much or didn't mean to do, I will forgive them.
On other way round,if the hurt really seriouse to me I will never forgive.

As quoted by Hallowell: "If you devote your life to seeking revenge, first dig two graves." Even I Feel hurt , I also have to learn how to forgive of someone. I could ask for help—of best friends, a therapist or through prayer.

We can learn pardon from this shooting massacre. If my friend does something bad to me, I don’t want to hurt him as much as he hurt me. I think hurt each other can’t alter for the better about our comradeship. But I can’t forgive him easily. Because we are friend, I don’t understand why he does these bad things to his friend, me.
I wish he doesn’t do these things to each other. And I will learn to forgive him.

To forgive someone is very difficult. For me, it's a big question because I don't like the feeling that someone hurt or treat on me. I think if someone hurt me, I will not forgive him or her
