“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” -Mahatma Gandhi

forgiveness is not something that just happens. Some people find it helpful to release their anger while others find the idea disgusting. I have dealt with my share of parents of murdered children and victims of sex crimes. Though many find a way to move forward in life, forgiveness truly eludes them. This does not make them bad people. This just means that it is not healing for them at this time.

Forgiveness comes from within. It is not something that can be forced. Either you can do it or you can’t. If you cannot, then don’t think that you are a bad person or that you failed in some way. In some cases, forgiveness is just not possible. You may learn not to despise the perpetrator, but saying you forgive can be hollow if that is not what you truly feel.

the correct answer is option c. elenita versus "early puerto rican decor" is the best example, out of all the options, of a cultural conflict. a cultural conflict is defined as what happens when different cultures, that have different values and believes, clash. elenita not liking or accepting the puerto rican style of decoration, would represent that she does not identify herself with the puerto rican culture, therefore does not want to have decorations influenced by that culture.
