The phrase "Not forgiving someone is like drinking poison and waiting for the other man to die" makes sense. Kind of. The whole drinking poison thing means that you can hold a grudge, but it won't really effect the other person as much, so you'll feel crappy for no reason, so you shouldn't waste your time holding a grudge, and just suck it up and forgive them.
In my humble opinion, that's a load of bull honky.
I am VERY stubborn, so I'm a bit bias to NOT forgiving people. I can hold a grudge for a full ten years, and I have. For instance, when I was five, I told my mother to hold my pickle for me, and NOT EAT IT. Needless to say, she ate it. To this day, about ten years later, whenever I give my mother something edible of mine not to hold, I say, "NOT TO EAT IT. IT IS NOT A PICKLE."
In conclusion, I don't forgive people very much. If I like the person, I can forgive them. If not, you better run, or I will find you and go Chuck Norris on your (explicit word). Also, I don't really have that tiny voice in your head that tells you to do the right thing. I have many voices telling me to do the wrong thing. Therefor, the phrase about forgiveness shown above holds no meaning to me whatsoever.
Don't forgive people, get your revenge! It's funner!
