Roman Catholic AnswerTo bear wrongs patiently is one of the spiritual works of mercy. The dictionary defines "patiently" as bearing pains or trials calmly or without complaint, manifesting forbearance under provocation or strain, steadfast despite opposition, difficulty, or adversity. In other words, if we think that we are wronged - for whatever reason - we are not to strike back, or complain, but remain calm and do our duty. Nothing is ever solved by striking back at another. Look at Jesus: "Learn of me, for I am meek and humble of heart." None but the humble will enter heaven, it is something that we need to pray for every day of our lives.
