~~~THE POWER OF FORGIVENESS~~~
To forgive
Is really to remember
That nobody is perfect
That each of us stumbles
When we want so much to stay upright
That each of us says things
We wish we had never said
That we can all forget that love
Is more important than being right
To forgive is really to remember
That we are so much more
Than our mistakes
That we are often more kind and caring
That accepting another's flaws
Can help us accept our own
To forgive is to remember
That the odds are pretty good that
We might soon need to be forgiven ourselves
That life sometimes gives us more
Than we can handle gracefully
To forgive is to remember
That we have room in our hearts to
Begin again.
Live simply. Love generously.
Care deeply. Speak kindly.
Leave the rest to God !
