Leo Tolstoy was not only a good writer, but also a very good person by nature.  Leo Tolstoy always treated others well and forgive those who misbehaved.  Leo Tolstoy did not think wrong of anyone in his mind and learned the same to his younger daughter.

There is one such incident related to the life of Leo Tolstoy which is presented here-

One day Leo Tolstoy was busy writing in his room, when he heard the voices of his daughter crying.  Leo Tolstoy immediately got up and went out and picked up the daughter on her lap and asked her the reason for crying.  

The daughter said crying that she was playing with a boy living in the neighborhood.  Both of them got into a fight while playing and the boy beat him up.  Leo Tolstoy's daughter is filled with anger, telling her father, and begs for a whip to kill the boy.  Then Leo Tolstoy pacified his daughter's wrath and gave him a glass of sorbet and asked him to give the sorbet glass to the boy.  

The daughter did the same.  The boy was surprised to see this behavior of the girl and from that day onwards he became a very good friend of that girl.  Also became devoted to Tolstoy's family.

This is to say that forgiveness always gives positive results instead of anger.

Dishonest behavior towards the abuser creates a feeling of violence in any human being leading to more bad behavior, while virtue behavior motivates any person to improve.  Therefore, learn to forgive by enlarging your mind. 

Everyone thinks of changing the world, but nobody thinks of changing themselves.
