"Il est très facile de pardonner aux autres leurs erreurs il faut plus de courage et de détermination pour les pardonner d'avoir été témoins des vôtres"
— John Galsworthy
Simplified Meaning:
When other people make mistakes, it's usually not too hard to forgive them because everyone makes errors sometimes. But when others see us make a mistake, it can be much more challenging to forgive them. It's like when you trip and fall in front of a group of friends. You might feel embarrassed or ashamed, so it might be hard to let go of that feeling, even if they don't judge you harshly. Imagine you spilled a drink on yourself at a party. People may laugh or make a small joke, but they move on quickly. Still, you might feel humiliated and angry at them for seeing your clumsy moment. The real challenge is letting go of your own embarrassment and forgiving your friends for being witnesses to your misstep. By doing this, you can move past your own insecurities and have better, healthier relationships. It's about being strong enough to not let your pride get in the way of friendship and understanding.
