Gandhi Was Right: If We All Live

Forgiving Is Tough. Excusing Is Easy. What A Mistake It Is To Confuse Forgiving With Being Mushy, Soft, Gutless, And Oh, So Understanding. Before We Forgive, We Stiffen Our Spine And We Hold A Person Accountable. And Only Then, In Tough-minded Judgment, Can We Do The Outrageously Impossible Thing: We Can Forgive.

Happy People Are Not Their Own Enemies, Do Not Carry On An Endless War With Their Souls. We May Be Fiercely At Odds With The Wrongs Of The World Around Us. But Inside Ourselves, Near The Core, If We Are Happy, We Are At Peace.

Our History Is An Inevitable Component Of Our Being. One Thing Only Can Release Us From The Grip Of Our History. That One Thing Is Forgiveness.

The First And Often Only Person To Be Healed By Forgiveness Is The Person Who Does The Forgiveness... When We Genuinely Forgive, We Set A Prisoner Free And Then Discover That The Prisoner We Set Free Was Us.

Waiting Is The Hardest Work Of Hope.
