The movie "Unbroken", was based on a true story of the life of Louis Zamparini, who was tortured in a Japanese prisoner of war camp during WWII. The terrible treatment caused him to harbor feelings of hatred for a number of years, causing him many problems in his personal life. We all have experienced unfairness and poor treatment at the hands of others. However, like Louis, we need to accept personal responsibility for our own actions and forgive those who have wronged us. Only then can we have happy, fulfilling lives.
