How forgiving my father liberated me | Agon Hare | TEDxNTU

The act of forgiveness is more powerful than we appreciate. When we hold onto the hurt caused by others, in the form of anger, resentment and pride, we discredit ourselves and deny ourselves the peace that comes from letting go. Without the cleansing power of forgiveness, we continue to suffer beyond the actual moment of pain. So, when we forgive, we make a powerful and liberating choice to deny the hurt to linger. Agon Hare is a singer, video creator, and world-traveler from Poland. As a member of the Nas Daily team, he is an open-hearted story teller. His videos have been seen by over 160 million people. Agon is on a mission to create a more compassionate and brighter world through his initiative Project Nightfall. He empowers individuals to embrace themselves and change the way they think about global issues such as racism, environment and immigration through his innovative video content. He also aims to change the music industry and bring it back to its honest and authentic roots. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

They have ruined my happy childhood n teen also. But Agon ur video changed my perspective towards them. It's hard feeling, that having parents and feeling like an orphan. Proud of you and hats off Agon.

    People who have hurt you either dont know or they dont care. They don;t care about yoru forgiveness. That is why enlightened forgiveness to release yourself from bitterness or anger is so important. Believe me. i had so much anger in me towards someone i had loved and who betrayed me. it gave me a hiatus hernia. The solar plexus is where you feel it. This guy is very wise.

    I left home mainly because of the fights between my parents. Insulting each other, never a smile, they hated each other. I hoped that the arrival of my daughter would change them but nothing happened. In my hearth I forgave them both but I know that we cannot recover our relationship (if one ever existed). I would go and hug them both but I know that it's a version of them that exist only inside my head, better than the real one.
