Don't hold grudges — find a way to forgive.

Look to the great teachers for inspiration. Jesus of Nazareth suffered excruciating pain and chose to forgive his tormenters. The Dalai Lama and the Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh see all people as their friends, even those who have treated them poorly. Follow their example. Find a way to let the other person off the hook, even if you think they don't deserve it. Do it for you. If you are determined to keep an open heart and be a loving presence in the world, you will be able to do it. You may even find that it gets easier with practice.
