Foregiveness
28 Tuesday Sep 2010
Posted in Philosophy
forgiveness - we really are talking about religious life – openness, empathy, compassion – retention of anger, resentment and turning it into righteous indignation. Anger and mercy are intertwined in G-d and he makes something constructive – that is what we need to learn. – Susannah Heschel
I found this idea interesting. We should not always forgive. Sometimes we should get annoyed and resentful as long as we use this to make something constructive happen.
Have you ever turned your resentfulness into righteous indignation and did something about it? I haven’t. I have a hard time imagining myself doing so. I let things go.
