Everyone thinks forgiveness is a lovely idea until he has something to forgive.
Forgiveness is often viewed as a noble and beautiful concept, embraced by many in theory. However, when individuals find themselves in situations that require them to forgive, the reality becomes much more complex. The challenge of overcoming personal grievances and emotional wounds is frequently underestimated until one faces it directly.
C.S. Lewis, in his work "Mere Christianity," highlights this paradox, suggesting that while many agree on the importance of forgiveness, few truly understand its depth until they must practice it themselves. This highlights the internal struggle people may face in reconciling their ideals with their experiences.
