Jesus was taken to be crucified and hung on a cross between two criminals. Even while this was happening, He prayed to God to forgive the people involved. On the cross, He was mocked by the people who had gathered as well as the soldiers and told if He was the King of the Jews, He should save himself. This is the ultimate example of loving ones enemies. Even while He was being crucified, Jesus prayed for His oppressors. People hurt others because they have been hurt themselves. The way to make a difference in someone's life is to break the cycle of hurt and show them love. This is what Jesus did and this is what we need to do if we want to make a difference in this world for Him.
