Somebody does something wrong, either against an individual, or against the society. To forgive means to pardon the accused with no resentment left. If forgiveness is complete, the act of offense is totally forgotten, as if it never took place. cd_mohatta@pacificaritcles.com (C D Mohatta) Thu, 01 Mar 2007 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pacificarticles.com/articles/4849/1/Ambitions/Ambitions.html I aim to become the president of my country.

It gives many pleasures and it gives many pains. I wonder if you believe in fate, but some of us get a bigger share of pain than pleasure. I am not speaking of pains such as hunger, shelter etc., but pains of the heart. Why is heart so important for us? Because it is the center of love. Love motivates us and gives us direction in life. cd_mohatta@pacificaritcles.com (C D Mohatta) Sun, 25 Feb 2007 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pacificarticles.com/articles/4804/1/How-To-Be-An-achiever/How-To-Be-An-achiever.html Go back to your school days.

The emotional impact of such a loss however can go much deeper. For many physicans this may be felt as a complete disavowal of who they are as human beings.
