More on Forgiveness
“What it taught me was forgiveness. It taught me that when people present themselves in a certain way, there's probably some back story or issue or reason for the way that they are. It's not you. It's them. And a lot of times, its about something that's completely out of their control”
“Pray you now, forget and forgive.”
“One always begins to forgive a place as soon as it's left behind.”

The logical feeling that we find in ourselves if we search deeply enough that has to be exercised toward all other living creatures.”
