The true secret of happiness in life is to forgive and forget. you will always find people around you who are unhappy or gloomy mainly because of two reason either they cannot live up to their or others expectations or they have lost something or someone very dear to them. That’s when you have to forget things to be happy. Swami Vivekananda said – “we know that it is hurting us ; that any further clinging to it simply bringing misery to us ; we are attached .” It’s simple human psychology to keep thinking about a particular thing over and over again. That’s what Swami Vivekananda tried to say ; if we overcome this phase and stop thinking about it i.e Forget it then only we can lead a happy life.
When you are hurt or betrayed you often ten to be upset or in extreme cases you become depressed and that’s when you have to forgive others when Jesus Christ was crucified, he asked his lord to forgive those who have intentionally or unintentionally hurt him. when we take example from our daily life we find that majority of the people feel that forgiving others would make them look small and cowardly in front of their friends or colleagues. once a great man said, “FORGIVENESS IS THE ATTRIBUTE OF THE STORM.” It’s forgiving others which makes us great and not punishing them for their since. It’s a wonderful world, so why waste time being upset depressed or unhappy ? Life is not a bed of roses but even the sun set’s in paradise. It depends on us on how we take our life as. Think happy thoughts and have a happy day. Also remember the key to happiness in life is to know when to hold on to thinks and when to let them go.
