flowermade: In the process of reading so far has good advice.

Richard Nambaale: We should all learn to forgive but if you really want to understand what true forgiveness is, you have to start with yourself because you can not forgive others if you can not accept that you yourself self have some foibles and weaknesses that you need to deal with before you can actually understand that others too are the same as yourself. You can not be irreconcilable or reconciling if you can don't admit you make mistakes

The most person that we need to forgive is yourself. Why? Because regardless of what has happened; regardless of who was in the wrong; regardless of who started it or ended it or played part in it -- your response to it is far more important to it than the root cause of it. Why? Because you can choose to follow the path of the antichrist, that is the devil, or the path of God. Fire doesn't extinguish by pouring more fuel to it, it just gets more engulfed into flames. The side and decisions you make as your ultimate response will either be of God or of the antichrist.

Dr. EB: Heart wrenching in parts to read what people can do against each other. The heart warming parts of the power of forgiveness to transform and ease both hurt and pain.

C Rogers: The need for forgiveness lies at the heart of the human condition. Who better to explain the systematic process of it than Tutu, who chaired the Truth and reconciliation commission in South Africa after the fall of apartheid, together with his daughter.

Daniel O.: It's a book that everyone can gain from reading, and I recommend you do so.

Wonderfully written, and thought provoking. And also providing the introspection we all need from time to time.

GBS CANE: Desmond and Mpho Tutu speak from their own experience and that of others of the absolute necessity of forgiveness. They offer a clear way forward of how to forgive others and how to receive forgiveness. This book is accessible to people from all religious backgrounds or none and is absolutely unyielding in its affirmation that forgiveness is essential to personal and societal healing and peace.

Jeet: Forgiveness is a difficult trait for me to master. I find myself holding grudges towards someone making a snide comment or looking at me funny. There are also moments where I feel that a person has wronged me in more serious ways, and those grudges are even harder to free myself of. These emotions have done me no favors, and I would do well to let them go. But that is much easier said than done. In this book, Desmond Tutu and his daughter Mpho instruct how to forgive and how to be forgiven.

I know that I will refer back to this book when I find myself in dark times. With clarity and powerful anecdotes, the authors delineate what you must do in order to forgive someone in a way that makes sense and is easy to implement. There are tangible steps that one can take to forgive, and the authors lay out those steps in a way that is grounded and understandable. I would not call this book religious at all, but it does have moments of spirituality. These include poems and mindfulness exercises that people can use to help them forgive. None of these resonated with me, but others might find them useful. The core content of this book, though, is down to earth and never once do the...
