In Pursuit of Happiness II.

I saw it on televison the other night.
I am glad to learn that many good people, who had suffered the greatest losses in life, become happy again. They forgave the persons who grieved them. By forgiving the criminals who murdered their dear family members, they released themselves from the burden of a tragic heart-wrenching experience. The act of forgiving enables them to put the tragedy behind and found closure and peace within. Although their lives can never be the same without the loved ones around, forgiveness also transforms them to be more empathetic toward others including themselves.
Apparently, besides being content, forgiving also brings happiness. - Ayee
