Regarding forgiveness, never had I heard it said in such a way                                                                                               as it flowed so gently from the lips of a wise woman today.                                                                              From the innermost being of one so pure and noble and from                                                                                 one who surely practices the art of forgiveness came words                                                                               most arresting and refreshing.                                                                                

Unforgiveness can lay hold of its victims, forcing them into captivity                                                                                      for a lifetime; and in so during, no parties involved are benefited.
Regardless of the depth of our wounds or how inhumanely                                                                                               we have been wronged, to be truly free and whole, we must                                                                                find a way to forgive others.

The wise lady said that we can approach matters of forgiveness like                                                                   we deal with the loss of a loved one.  We can allow the grief to saturate                                               us to the point of never letting it go, taking it to the grave with us.                                                                                         Or, we can acknowledge the pain and sting of death, release the grief                                                                  and move forward.  Likewise, release the offending person and "move on".                                                      
The deceased one does not come back to life. The offense cannot be undone,                                                 nor does it go away any more than death or its sting of grief and loss.  However, we learn to live with the loss and gracefully move on, thriving with the love of God in our heart. Also, we become candidates for the healing of others.
