“When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.”

-Alan Paton

       Many people don’t forgive others when they do something to them. Others forgive people fast. Others forgive after a long time. In this quote, Alan Paton thinks it’s best to just forgive. The faster the better. The reason is because you recover from that pain faster. According to him, when a deep injury is done to someone, you don’t recover until you forgive that person. You live the rest of your life angry with that person. You won’t be living happy. You’ll always have in mind that person and why you hate them. That’s why it’s better to forgive and live happy.
