Forgiveness

And......

I disagree with most of you (surprise, lol), THAT never happens.

Forgiveness is an easy concept when you are simply forgiving the person for being human and having (sometimes horrible) faults. We are human, and therefore we fail...we hurt..we cause serious pain to others.

I must personally forgive them of the sin of not being perfect and causing me harm, but I NEVER forget the wrong done to me and THAT is what will color my future relationship or complete absence from their lives. To forget what has been done, and set yourself up for repeated hurt is (to me) the height of foolishness.

It's true,people are human and we make mistakes all the time,we ARE NOT! perfect in any way shape or form.I have come to understand that at my age.If you have it in your heart to do so,I agree,better to forgive and move on.I'm talking regular average people here and not people who are in position of power like politicians and people like the Pope,that's a whole other breed of people that have to be almost perfect,because the decisions they make can have a major impact on our lives.

Of course,some people in this world are just down right mean and ugly.I've learned to stay away from those types,period.lol

Btw, I am Slow to anger/Quick to forgive
