I think you should forgive him. Not for his benefit but yours. Hating him will only hurt you not him. Everyone has said pretty much what I think so I can add something a bit different... When I was in in late elementary and middle school I hated several people. It was strong and real, it affected me badly; it made me more angry, depressed, and generally unhappy. It was not hurting the people who caused me so much pain but was hurting me in serious ways. So the year before high school I decided I did not like what the hate was doing to me, what kind of person it was making me. It took one decision to stop hating but that is not to make it sound easy. It took me alot of time to see what it was doing to me and more months to slowly let it go, it was not really until partway through my first year of high school when I made some good friends I could really let it go. I was challenged with hate again right after high school when my family was torn apart. It took me almost a year to get over that and not hate the person. It also took many sleepless nights, depression, and well it was not fun. You can do this man. It is not easy but it will be the right thing to do in the end. Day by day |
