"To Err is Human, to Forgive Divine"

I Have No Idea...

What to write about for this one and I'm so tired and I really just want to go to sleep even though it's barely 10:08 and I could go to sleep way later than this, but I'm drained of energy and I can't stop thinking about something that's been bothering me (and actually this is how my english class works. You don't even have to write about the topic, but I like sticking to topics, so I'm going to write about the topic, so let's go! Let's do this!)

PROMPT: There is a famous adage: "To err is human, to forgive divine."

When did you feel divine because you were able to forgive someone for their mistake? When did someone act divine by forgiving you when you were wrong?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I do think I'm actually a very forgiving person. I do not hold grudges like a lot of my family members on my mother's side do and for this I am glad. I just want to be happy and I think it is much better to forgive someone even when they have made a mistake then to just let it simmer in your brain on how much it makes you mad that they did such a thing. Everyone makes mistakes and we must realize that, so it is not good to just get mad at someone and not forgive them for what they've been, because honestly, they probably feel worse about it compared to you. I think there are many times people have messed up in my family and I'm not naming any names, but this particular person has messed up so many times in making good decisions in general. They have never once thought about what they could do, they don't try hard enough, and then they want to blame it on you and I don't think that's right. It's horrible at times, but I think the fact that I can forgive them, and all of us really, can forgive this person is what I think is really good. You must forgive or else how can anyone else forgive you?

I can't really think of a time when I did anything wrong, but I'm sure I have, but no one ever forgives me, so it doesn't pertain to me really. I would be really happy if someone did forgive me for something I did that I genuinely knew I made a mistake of.
