To forgive，to forget and to let go

Last Saturday morning， while scanning some pages ofCrazy English， which I read last year，I came across an article entitledThe Gift of Forgiveness.It narrates a story about forgiveness between the author and her friend Hannah.While driving her car，the author accidentally injures Hannah，leaving an imprint on her face， which destroys Hannah's career as a model.However，Hannah's mother forgives the author，which allows the two girls to stay friends throughout all their life.

The story arouses my reflection upon forgiveness， which is indispensable to everyone.For this，I recall a story about Li Yapeng and Wang Fei.Years ago，they established Smile Angel Foundation to raise funds for children in poverty with cleft（裂口）lips and palates.One day,when Li politely handed a leaflet（傳單）to a man，the man,without even giving a glance,just threw it onto the floor in public,which made Li feel insulted （侮辱）.However，bending over,Li picked up the leaflet and said softly,“I am so sorry to have disturbed you.”Then Li continued to distribute leaflets.Shortly afterwards,when Li traveled on business,an unexpected donation of￥10，000 arrived at him with no name left but a note which read“I am sorry”.It was just from the man.This story makes me become fully conscious that forgiving will bring us more than what we expect.

Forgiveness is an action； forgiveness is a consideration； forgiveness is also an inner selfcultivation as well as our lifelong destination.Therefore,what we should pursue throughout our life is to forgive the wrongs done on us.Only when we truly learn to forgive， to forget and to let go， can we dig out the more of human nature,experience more beautiful moments,gain more joy and happiness,and greet a more harmonious world.
