“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”

Oscar Wilde

Simplified Meaning:

When you forgive someone who has wronged you, it can be very frustrating for them. People who hurt you often expect you to be angry or seek revenge. By choosing to forgive, you take away the power they have over you and show that their actions haven't brought you down. Think about a school bully who tries to make you upset by calling you names. If you respond kindly and forgive them instead of getting upset, it bothers the bully because their plan didn’t work. Living with a forgiving heart not only helps you feel freer and happier, but it also confuses those who try to hurt you, making them less likely to try again. Forgiving others is a powerful way to rise above negativity and continue living a peaceful life.
