What’s hardest of all? Many don’t even think about it—but the answer is simple: it’s hardest to learn how to forgive. In the heat of emotions, we often promise ourselves not to forget the insult, not to forgive, not to communicate, to cross someone out of our lives. It seems that only resentment drives us—yet over time it passes, and sometimes even the very reason for the quarrel, which once felt so significant, fades away.
So what keeps us from reconciliation and the first step? Pride—and more often, arrogance. The characters in these novellas still come to an understanding: learning to forgive and to understand, dealing with pride and jealousy—this is vital. The most important thing is to do it in time.
