I'm glad Chris mentioned this ... I was thinking about it, too, and just couldn't find the right words. As cynical, retributive, and litiginous as society is nowadays, forgiveness is a rare commodity -- making it more difficult to offer and all the more precious when you can do it. I've read how being able to forgive shows how much we can get our lives out from being mired in the past. Finding the space in your heart to do this says a lot about how much progress you've made yourself and how much you have healed.
be well,
bob
