THERE'S NO JUDGMENT IN FORGIVENESS -
"Aren't some things
simply unforgivable?"
"We don't forgive the act-
ions another person has cho-
sen, because it was never our
job to judge the person... . In-
stead, we forgive when we
acknowledge our common
humanity with everyone
... . " (How Al-Anon
Works, p. 87)
WHEN LOVE IS ON THE LOOSE -
"Forgiving the unforgivable might not be easy. No one is ever required or forced to forgive." "But if we can do it, a lot of our own good energy, vision and love is freed up to serve both ourselves and others so good things can happen in our lives and in the lives of our people." (Wellbriety Vol. 10.2, p. 8)
"The weak
can never forgive.
Forgiveness is the
attribute of the
strong."
- Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948) India's preeminent political and spiritual leader
*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
