Have you offended/experienced committing a sin against any person like your

father, mother, siblings, or friends? Have you experienced forgiveness from


these persons? Share your experiences of being forgiven.

Forgiveness is a virtue but defining forgiveness is a very indistinct


perception among people. I will never forget that time when my mother and I
argued and I offended her with my extreme language and tone of voice. I was
angry at her that I even slammed my room door shut and I was crying in my
room as I realized my mistakes. I could not get out of my room the next day
because I was so embarrassed about what I said to her, but before I even got
out of bed, she knocked on my door and said I should wake up so I would not
be late for school. She was still there when I opened the door, and she hugged
me. She explained that whenever they scold us, it is just their way of teaching
us and correcting our wrongdoings so we should not get mad and we should
not talk back to them. I just cried and I realized what I did was wrong. From
that experience, I learned that the gift of forgiveness has been engraved in
every parent and they will never think in terms of non-forgiveness. My mother
had forgiven me before I even asked for her forgiveness. As a child, we make
light or heavy mistakes, behave badly, and do things we regret, but learning
about forgiveness from our parents and being forgiven is really for our
benefit. It allows us to have a good relationship with people, fill our hearts
with only positivities and hold onto only the good memories.
