Summary: Bitterness Stops Here!
Comment: Why Forgive? Because if you don't, you'll be consumed by your own bitterness. That's Arnold's thesis, in a nutshell. And from my own personal experience, I can say he's right. But it's tough -- very tough -- to go from understanding the need to forgive to actually doing it, especially when you've been hurt badly in the past; at least that's my experience. The many stories Arnold recounts -- true stories of people who've worked through their pain to find healing through forgiveness -- helped me to see that there's never an excuse not to forgive. Why Forgive? Read this book, and you'll understand that your quality of life depends on it.

Summary: This is a totally uplifting book.
Comment: I've already read the book through twice. The first time in one sitting. I ordered another copy for a friend, but I'm keeping mine to read again. This is a totally uplifting book. Definitely a five-star!
"Why Forgive?" brings a simple, but powerful message. Every time we experience something painful, it opens the door to choose either bitterness or compassion. If we choose bitterness and hatred, we give other people the power to ruin our lives. If we choose compassion and forgiveness, we find an inner peace that no one can take away from us. Arnold brings many stories to support this simple point. Some are tragic stories far outside the normal experience of most people. Some are almost mundane stories from the everyday lives of ordinary people. The combination illustrates how forgiveness is just as important in small grudges as in the dramatic life stories of faraway people. I'm totally inspired.

Summary: Required reading for the health of your spirit
Comment: A powerful, emotionally driving book, "Why Forgive" provides a framework of forgiveness that not only defines why it is important to forgive, but also how not forgiving eats at us like a cancer until it kills our happiness and our very essence.
With true life stories of amazing acts of forgiveness, the book shows how forgiveness is required before truly moving on to complete healing when you have been wronged. The extremely powerful stories show how forgiveness has allowed individuals to regain their lives after severe tragedy has entered their lives. Instead of taking the easy path and allowing anger and hate to destroy them, they make a choice that results in a deep peace. Pick up the book, learn to forgive, learn how it is necessary for true peace, choose the road less travelled and choose forgiveness. If there is a book that should be required reading for everyone, this is a contender for that book.
