Forgiving And Forgiveness

According to Mc CuUough, Pargament, & Thoresen, 2000, social scientists have adopted many conceptualization of forgiveness, alternatively characterizing the construct as an emotion, a decision, a behaviour, and a motivational change. According to Worthington (2001), Forgiveness is defined as the emotional replacement of (1) hot emotions of anger or fear that follow a perceived hurt or offense, or (2) unforgiveness that follows ruminating about the transgression, by substituting positive emotions such as unselfish love, empathy, compassion, or even romantic love.

Jane Eyre is a young orphan child, smart and independent in nature and sadly mistreated in her new home. She is outwardly emotional towards her caretaker Mrs. Reed. Her disagreement with her unfair treatment is seen as very disrespectful even though it might be quite just.

After reading your outline I got a little teary eyed at the conclusion when you said “Amaya understands now why I was always gone and she forgiven me which is what I needed…her forgiveness.” I like the happy ending! Your topic is very emotional and heartfelt. The outline is very organized, all your paragraph topics relate back to your thesis. Your introductory paragraph catches my attention and the purpose is clearly conveyed. I can’t imagine PCSing and then deploying soon after especially with a family. Your conclusion is well written and I like the ending on a positive note. Overall I think you have an interesting topic and can understand the message you’re conveying. Good Luck on your

Allah (Subhana Wataala) has granted wisdom to humans. The wisdom calls for responsibility. The more wisdom a person has, the more he/she is responsible.

Forgiveness is something that is not fully understood in todays culture. Forgiveness is an art. It is an art because many people look at art and say “ Oh thats just colors splattered together”. Many people look at forgiveness and say “ Oh well im sorry thats all I can do”. These are both incorrect outlooks. Each picture an artist creates has a hidden meaning that you will only see if you really look beyond the shapes that your brain see’s. Forgiveness is more than just accepting the fact that someone apologized. It is remembering the anguish and hurt that they caused you and willing to put it all in the past and move forward with your life. Anyone can lie and say that their over it, but only those whose heart are free of the anger really understand the art of forgiving someone.

However, Jane stays faithful and finds her way in life despite being alone. The theme of this Victorian novel symbolized Jane’s self-reliance through examples such as, John Reed throwing a book at her, Mr. Brocklehurst calling her a liar in front of the entire school, and Mr. Rochester not telling her about his wife. In the beginning of the novel, Jane lived with Aunt Ms. Reed; during her stay with the Reed’s Jane was mistreated. The Reeds

Jane Eyre lives in the home of the wealthy Reed family. Although she is living in Gateshead, the family treats her as a low class civilian and chides her as a lowly orphan. Mrs. Reed

The first chapter of Jane Eyre opens with the introduction of her environment and her cousins, one of them being the tyrannical John Reed. She is notably excluded from the group of her cousins huddling around their mother because she is unwanted. She finds peace in exclusion, reading her own book and being independent, yet John demands it that she be found immediately so he may presumably further exert his authority. It is at this point in the novel that there is light shed upon John’s apparent disaffection for the women in his family, possible sexism, and antagonism towards Jane. She is relentlessly bullied by John as he demands she refer to him as “Master Reed” as he bolsters his male superiority over the fragile young woman named Jane Eyre.

Rebecca, Thank you for your post. I like how you have articulated the sphere of forgiveness with some great examples. Your specific statement on, “This realization is freeing, as it is a reminder that all is a GIFT!” It really struck a chord with me. I’m thinking to myself, these forums are a great way of looking at the big picture, and opening up our horizon. You are right by not forgiving we are our own prisoners. How do we set ourselves free? It is really as simple as with the grace of God ‘forgiveness’. Although it’s tough, when the impact is severe, there is no other magic way around. It gets easier once we realize “who’s we are”, and sooner we do better for us. Good on

Forgiveness, what does it exactly mean? When does it occur? Obviously, I know the basics of forgiveness but I really want to find what it entities and the process it takes. I know one also gain the ability to feel at peace with themselves when given forgiveness, but what gives them the ability to feel that way. Also, I ask of you to think is forgiveness meant to be given to everyone or just a select few. I always wonder if it actually possible to come up with a set of guidelines to Forgiveness, I mean wouldn’t that make life easy. Then again everyone experience is different, which leads me to ask how does one justifiably achieve forgiveness? In essence, I guess this will be my guide to forgiveness. Of course, I will look at real world examples but, I will create this guideline mainly out of my experience to reexamine and solidify my position on forgiveness and all it entails.

Can or should and the opposite is the forgiveness dilemma because no answer is right or wrong on any individual or mass crimes against humanity. All have their rational reasons supporting by many evidence and inferences. But, to forgive is one conclusion I have kept for many years, and especially when I saw the wounded woman who lost her girl in the church due to the terror attack. Har faith strengthens who lost their beloved ones in mass crime or terror act while her tears were asking for justice and not revenge. I was wondering if only she should forgive or she should, and can! Deeply, people who live persecuted and tortured have the experience of forgiveness also the opposite, and they know what the answer is. Since a long time, the world

Being able to forgive and forget allows people to continue to move on with their lives instead of dwelling on a situation. However, would one be able to forget about a situation more easily if they have forgiven their transgressor first? Saima, Bierman, and MacLeod (2014) proposed a study to address this question. They believe this is an important question to address because if forgiving makes forgetting easier, it will allow people who are able to forgive to release offenses, empowering them to preserve valued relationships and move on with their lives.

Jane responds passionately when she is exploited due to her position, yet every time Jane reacts this way she is able to explain her actions. When she yells at Mrs. Reed, Jane had perceived that Mrs. Reed had used her social standing as a superior adult to “obliterate [Jane’s] hope” for her future at Lowood. This particular explanation and other internal reflections reason with the reader, inspiring empathy for Jane’s situation. Even Jane’s depiction of the poor farmer’s children conveys Charlotte Brontë’s scorn of the class structure. Despite being illiterate and ill-mannered, the children have potential and they “wish to learn.” Jane’s condescending tone when referring to these children, and her recognition that tone is “wrong,” helps Charlotte Brontë relate to the reader and subtly show them that this innate scorn is ill founded. Furthermore, the characters of the upper classes that grew up with privilege are depicted throughout Jane Eyre as petty or immoral: Mrs. Reed, who is “cold-hearted,” spiteful and incapable of forgiveness; Blanche, who values wealth and status over personal happiness; and Rochester, who tries to trick Jane into a false marriage. All of these characters assist Brontë in disparaging the idea that the upper class is the worthier class. Instead Brontë intimates, through the moral purity and happiness of the less

Forgiveness can be explained in different ways and the process it takes in order to forgive someone varies on the severity of the incident as well as the relationship the person has with the perpetrator. I am amazed by all of the different ways forgiveness is used and interpreted. If it was not for the opinion and view of my classmates as well as the large amounts of research done, I would not be able to see things as broadly as I do now. I originally wrote about a study that was conducted on what it takes to forgive someone, the mental and physical reasons behind doing so. Some of my classmates research that really caught my attention was, the expansion of mental and emotional reasoning behind it through emotions such as guilt and empathy and humility.
