Forgiveness.

In my early twenties I have come to realise how important it is we forgive each other. We have no other option but to forgive, thats because people are only human so they're going to make mistakes because thats how we learn and once we've learn't from our mistakes we experience growth. As humans we don't understand how imperative it is we forgive because unforgiveness allows regression,hate and regeneration to manifest. One can observe this through whats occured in Zimbabwe. The black Zimbabweans repossessed the farms of white Zimbabweans unlawfully. They're actions were rooted in feelings of revenge and vegeanance against their white country men,for having oppressed them for many years. Revenge and Vegeanance are actions which are brought about unforgiveness. As a result Zimbabwe is now worse of than it was during segregation. As South Africans we contributed to the ill treatement of human rights in Zimbabwe as we didn't do anything to stop this. As Gandhi said, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
