My dear Friends,
what is
forgiveness and should people always forgive their wrongdoers? Probably the
answer of many of us is quite obvious when it comes to everyday life situations
like having arguments, insulting others and being insulted, lying to each other
etc. But what about such cases like murders, betrayals and infringements? Is it
possible to forgive such delinquencies and continue to live without persistent
sense of hatred and grief?
This kind of reflection has come into
my mind and completely broke my heart when I was visiting Auschwitz
concentration camp last Saturday. I was familiarized nefore with the history
about a ferocious treatment and extermination of people by the Nazi German, but
it was extremely hard experience to realize that I was physically present in a zone
where such horrible things had taken place. When I was walking there, I really
couldn’t believe that everything that had happened was true. It was like a
horror film, but based on real facts and evidences. Considering hard conditions
in which prisoners had to live and work, the ferocity and brutal inhuman behavior
of the Nazi German executors, there immediately appears a question, could they
be forgiven by their numerous victims and members of the victims’ families? 
I can hardly imagine myself in a
place of these victims and try to forgive, but I know that forgiveness is an
utterly powerful thing that can miraculously reconcile people, giving them an
inner peace and happiness.
