They way I see it, if I can truly forgive someone for a wrong they have done to me, and continue to love them, then in a spiritual way, that is a strength. It seems to be something I am able to do because I can recall many times in my life where I have been able to forgive various people in various situations...and the results have been good. I have noticed few people see things the same way. In fact my forgiving nature has been called 'stupid', 'doormat', 'dumb' 'weak'...by people. It seems the world does not value my ability to forgive. People see at strong to walk fight, walk away, and hold anger toward others. How do I handle this? What can I say/do to these people when they critisize me for something that brings love and peace to my heart? The world seems so upside down :(
