In the movie Antwone Fisher, Denzel Washington plays a psychologist who helps an angry young man deal with his past.

The key theme throughout the movie can be summed up wonderfully by something that Denzel Washington says.

"Forgiveness is freeing yourself."

When you have anger or resentment towards someone, who really suffers?

There are many cases in which if you were to confront the person who made you angry, they would not be able to recall the incident that is the root of this resentment.

Therefore, take some time to think of the anger and resentment that you have towards others. Ask yourself is it justified. Ask yourself if you can work towards rebuilding those bridges.

The ultimate result is this. By removing this anger and resentment, you are ultimately freeing yourself.
