Get over it!

What is the importance of values for a person?Well, values shapes our caracter and personality. If we see that we are forced to break them, in our conscience produces a confusion because this would mean to stop being who we really are. People define this as "hypocrisy". If we feel that our values are violated or criticized we take this as a personal attack. Reactions, words, the actions of the others goes trough our own filter of values and principles.

If I am a punctual person for instance, my perception on the other person that will came late will be of disrepect against me. If I am an onest person and someone tries to lie to me, I will consider this as an insult.

All this things are the bases of the principle: "You have the right to forgive the one who fails but you don't have the right to forget the mistake."

Saying that you can both forgive the person that failed and forget the mistake is not realistic because the human brain has 2 elements that won't let us forget: memory and conscience.

In this case the most common expressions are: "to get over it", or "make a compromise", "let it be", that determines you not to take action now but when the person will make another mistake. The effects of the mistake in that moment are going to be bigger including interest for the other mistakes that we "got over them".
