Summary/Abstract: The man of the Romanian village always sought the peace of his fellow man by forgiving his mistake, brought him close to his heart and advised him that the only way to obtain peace of soul and good is contemplation: "the wise man keeps the straight path", says a saying from the elders and who follows this way goes far. The expression "far reaching" is the result of understanding. Let's realize that one's inability to forgive destroys the ability to think of the one who wants to be forgiven for wrongdoing. Forgiveness must not only be found with the person who wronged us, but with our reconciliation that we have passed a time in life through which we want good. It is a form of spreading and affecting all areas of our lives, but also those around us. The joy of forgiveness is shared with our close partners because it fills our mood, behavior and reactions with release. Unforgiveness affects the individual's personality, inner peace and even the joy of being.
