Forgiveness and Pardon

If you happen to offend anybody – be quick to apologize sincerely and to ask for forgiveness.

If anyone offends you and apologizes – forgive them and appreciate their willingness to admit their mistake.

If someone offends you, they might not be aware of it, so don't expect an apology. Try to forgive them and don’t let anger build up in you. Try to exercise restraint, so that anger and insult don’t overpower you.

If anyone offends you intentionally, be kind and try to forgive. It's possible that they may not be virtuous enough, or have not yet calmed down enough.
