'When a spouse or family member has wronged us or let us down it is important to try hard to resolve the matter as quickly as possible & forgive them.

If we broke relations with all family members who have made mistakes or have wronged us, we would lead a very lonely life full of hatred and mistrust.

Those who have broken off relations due to one or two wrongdoings have mostly regretted later on in life, whereas those who have forgiven and reconciled have mostly lead a much happier life than before.

When forgiving, it is important to forget the past as difficult as this may be.

Those who do not prevent themselves from thinking of the past tend to live in constant agony & bitterness.

People who instantly opt for divorce without considering forgiveness and reconciliation may find it difficult to live with anyone, as all human beings are prone to error.

Leaving matters unresolved or delaying for no valid reason, makes it spiral and causes deep rooted hatred that quickly seeps through to extended families and the next generations.

It is unfair that innocent cousins are made to grow up with so much unnecessary baggage and abide blindly by lines that their parents were too selfish to erase.

Forgive, resolve and reconcile as far as possible. It is healthier for you in every way.'

'There are always two sides to a story and at times even more.

It is totally unacceptable to make our minds up negatively about another person or behave badly towards them based solely on what we heard about them, without giving them a chance to explain themselves fully.

If we are not prepared to do this much, then we must ignore the entire matter.

In fact if it does not concern us then we should not have even entertained the tales from the very beginning.

There are so many misunderstandings regarding people in these times for many petty and personal reasons too.

Getting caught up in such a mess could mean oppressing an innocent person whom we could have benefited from greatly in one way or another and who is probably cleaner than those who carried the tale to us.

Remember, giving people the benefit of the doubt when in doubt is recommended.

Also, anything positive or good about others may be spread without clarification as it is not oppressive to do so.'
