6月20日的主題--Bitterness and Forgiveness 苦毒與饒恕

6月20日的空英課程主題是 Bitterness and Forgiveness(苦毒與饒恕)。

What can we gain by forgiving someone? Can we gain anything by refusing to forgive? Forgiveness goes against our nature. When people hurt us, we naturally want to punish them for it. Perhaps even more difficult is asking for forgiveness, which hurts our pride. But forgiveness is necessary to keep any relationship going. And it is necessary for our own peace of mind. When we forgive someone, we set him free from his guilt. But what we might not realize is that we are also setting ourselves free, from the prison of bitterness and anger.
饒恕別人時我們自己得到什麼好處?拒絕饒恕時我們又會得到什麼呢?饒恕是與我們的本性背道而馳的。當有人傷害我們時,很自然地我們會想為此懲罰他們。或許更難啟口的是請求饒恕,因為這有損我們的自尊心。然而為讓友誼關係持續下去,饒恕是不可或缺的,對我們自己的心情平靜更是如此。當我們饒恕時,我們豁免了他人的罪疚感;然而我們可能不明白的是,我們也同時從苦毒與憤怒的監獄中釋放了自己。
