Forgiveness

"Forgiveness is an act of the imagination. It dares you to imagine a better future, one that is based on the possibility that your hurt will not be the final word on the matter."

 

I don't know where this quote came from, but I like it.  This is why I can forgive Rich's brother for his behaviour, the She-Ex for hers, the He-Ex for his, and me for mine.  Forgiveness is the first step to healing, and until we are healed as individuals, then the world around us suffers and suffers our pain by proxy.

However, I need to make ham sandwiches for the Adorable Child today.
