Forgiveness!!

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong!!!

Thats precisely what I felt when saw Mr. P Chidamambaram's press conference review in one of the news channels where a shoe was thrown at him by one of the journalist.

Now I donot know what was going on in the mind of that person to resort to an act like that and whatever that it was, would have in anyway justified his act!! But what definitely struck me was the way our Defense Minister reacted. Unperturbed & with a smile on his face , he politely asked the security people to take him away gently. At that very instant , it was evident that he had nothing against this guy n that the journalist was forgiven!!

Now thats what I call a magnanimous heart with an insurmountable capacity to FORGIVE... I donot know under those circumstances how many politicians would have reacted the way he did.. forget politicians.. how many of us would have reacted to a situation like that in a way he did...the first reaction would have been anger..which could have been either displayed by a noisy outburst or probably we would have blanketed the same by Silence.

Now.. we can't be Mr Chidambaram...and neither is it required of us to be... but what we certainly can imbibe is that one quality which would stand by us all though our life.. n that is learning to FORGIVE!!

So guys.. be forgiving .. be strong!!
