Forgiveness
Monday, Dec. 15, 2003 - 3:19 pm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Three quotes about forgiveness I like: There is nothing that in the end, cannot be forgiven, but there remains much that is inexcusable. ~Jankelevitch~ Forgiveness is not an occasional act. It is a permanent attitude. ~Martin Luther King ~ It is freeing to become aware that we do not have to be victims of our past and can learn new ways of responding. But there is a step beyond this recognition... It is the step of forgiveness. Forgiveness is love practiced among people who love poorly. It sets us free without wanting anything in return. ~Henri Nouwen~
