I do not hold grudges, I can let it go even though sometimes it may take a little bit.

Depends. I've found the few people I have difficulty with in life, tend to be repeat offenders. They ikeep pissing everyone off, so they don't really give you the chance to forgive them. Or do so for long.

If you expect someone or want someone to forgive you then it's best to learn how to forgive others too. If you can't forgive then shouldn't expect forgiveness in return.

Really depends on the transgressions to be considered forgiven. As males, we tend to let the silly stuff go without much thought of bitterness. (at least many of us)
If you are talking about growing up in a violent, hostile environment as a kid, and you are worried about keeping that going to your little ones? Yeah.. you have to let that shit go and be a better person than your mom/dad/grandpappy/etc were. Break that cycle immediately by constantly reminding yourself of how it felt to be that abused kid.... and know that you don't want yours to feel that misery that you once did. Much really depends on what exactly you are struggling with. |

Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.
Colossians 3:13

For everyone that says they are forgiving and you have to be to be happy etc. - do you forgive people that aren't sorry for whatever they've done?

depends on what caused the grudge.
But 95% - no wait, make that 96% of the time ,I let things roll off my back. Life's to short to let shit bother you too much. especially shit that is meaningless.

Parent to kid relationships are often broken down because no one wants to forgive & being a stubborn SOB about it only hurts them more.

I hold some grudges and let others go. Just depends on the situation.

I've never been good at forgiveness, and have let people walk away from my life because of it. I've gotten slightly better with age. But some things I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive.
