When someone has deeply hurt you,it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness ispossible— and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mentalhealth. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy,better appetite (胃口) and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less angerand more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive forGood. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow peopleto feel more energetic.”
So when someone has hurt you,calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that givesyou pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don't wait for anapology. “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,”says Dr. Luskin. “They may havewanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. So if you waitfor people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time. ” Keep in mindthat forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the personwho upset you. Mentally going overyour hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn tolook for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see thingsfrom the other person's perspective (视角). You may realize that he or she was acting out ofignorance (无知), fear—even love. To gain perspective, you may want to write aletter to yourself from that person's point of view.
