Anger and Forgiveness

By Exforsys | on February 6, 2011 |
Anger Management

While Forgiving Others Can be Hard, Studies Show It is Effective

Throughout the course of your life, there are many times when you will be wronged, where people and institutions you trust will take advantage of you. When you’re in a situation like this, the biggest question you should ask yourself is whether or not you should forgive.

Forgiving others is never easy, especially when you’re the innocent person who has suffered as a result of the actions of others. In truth, it is generally good to forgive others, but it must be done with a sense of balance.

For instance, if you’re in a relationship with someone, and they cheat on you, it is generally a bad idea to forgive to quickly. The reason for this is that you will appear as if you suffer from low self esteem.

In this situation, it is generally better to force your partner to earn their forgiveness as opposed to forgiving them too easily. The decision on whether or not to forgive is closely associated with anger management. The reason for this is because those that have been wronged will harbor a great deal of anger, and if they don’t forgive the people who did them wrong at some point, their situation will only become worse.

Always remember that forgiveness is a decision, and it is one that you can make. The good news is that a number of studies have shown that forgiving others who have wronged you actually provides you with a number of benefits.

There are two key benefits that you can get from forgiving others, and the first of these benefits is that choosing to forgive others is actually good for your health.

A number of studies have indicated that those who forgive others tend to have a small amount of health problems when compared to those who do not. Those who refuse to forgive others are much more likely to suffer from cancer as well as other cardiovascular ailments.

The second reason why forgiving others can be beneficial is because it can dramatically enhance your peace of mind. When you forgive others, you tend to have less anger overall, and this is one reason why forgiveness is directly connected to anger management.

Three Ways in Which You Can Forgive Others

When you are angry, you may often realize that it would be better to forgive those who have done you wrong, but you may not know how. There are three key aspects that you can consider in order to allow yourself to forgive others.

The first of these three things is to always keep in mind that forgiveness is a process; it is not something that happens overnight. It also requires you to have a great deal of patience.  Perhaps the most important thing to realize about forgiveness is that it should always occur on your terms, when you are ready. It is something that is reserved for you, and no one else.

The second way in which you can forgive others is to remember that forgiving does not mean you accept the wrongs that were done to you.

The biggest reason why many people refuse to forgive others for the wrongs that have been done to them is because they feel that doing so means that they condone these actions. This is not true. However, it does mean that you will not blame them as much and you will find a way to think better about the thing that happened to you.

The third thing you can do to forgive others is to focus back on the positives of your life.  Always remember that having a life that is well lived is one of the greatest forms of revenge that you can have on your enemies. If you allow the wrongs done to you to consume you with rage for the rest of your life, your enemies win. If you can see love around you, you will be able to forgive others.

Forgiveness is Not Easy, But It is a Necessity

One thing that neither you or anyone else can change is the fact that we all will experience injustice in our lives. Some of us will experience injustices which vastly exceed those experienced by others, and this only means that it is even more important for us to make sure we are able to forgive others. Always remember that when you are able to forgive others, in the end, you will be the one who wins.
