1. In the article "5 Reasons Why You should Forgive and Forget", the author Gitte Lindgoard argue that forgive is not only for others, but also something that we do for ourselves. Not forgiving someone is keeping yourself staying trapped in a jail, does not make things any better, we need to make peace with the pain, that is what a strong person will do, the weak person can never learn to forgive. Not forgiving will make us live with the pain, and forgive is how we move on. We also need to learn to understand others, human will keep making mistake, because we are not perfect, learn to forgive others then you will be forgiven.

2. Revenge is what we do when we can not forgive someone, that is the worse thing can happen. It could be endless, and usually end up lose on both side. Revenge can make people go crazy, and evil. From the novel that I read before-"Moby-Dick", it talks about a story of revenge, but the ending of that is the lost of many lives. Revenge does not make you feel better, and it is very dangerous. So if we can forgive at the first place, we will not be living with the revenge.

3. In the novel "Scarlet Letter", Hester's husband Mr.Chillingworth can not forgive what Hester has done, how Hester put shame on his name, he decided to seeking for revenge. Revenge made he changes a lot, he became evil and ugly, "Now, there was something ugly and evil in his face, which they had not previously noticed, and which grew still the more obvious to sight, the oftener they looked upon him." The people all observe the evil on Mr.Chillingworth face, but it did not happen at the first time he moves into this town, as more he is deep into the revenge, the more depraved he looked. If he decided to forgive Hester and Mr.Dimmesdale, he will not corrupt, and live with pain.

4. Holding the pain, resentment and hurt it is harmful for ourselves, when we learn to let go all of those, we can truly grow and feel happiness. Forgiveness help us to avoid a lot of unnecessary pain. And that is why it is so important to us
