Hello Deneen, this is sooo true! Forgiveness arrives with the excellence of forgiving. I had a friend. We had a great relation and then after a while all went wrong. I just stopped talking. She apologized so many times. It was around an year when finally I came up with the courage to forgive her. This took me just there. Forgiving is a great thing and now when most of the times she ignores me amidst all others I just dont bother. The magic of forgiving I shall say. Take care. Love, Chitra

Forgiveness is so hard sometime Deneen. It takes a lot to do it. The poem is very effective.

Certainly the message of forgiveness flows both ways. The process is bilateral in nature. The essence of the poem is packed with golden nuggets of inspiration. I like the uplifting tone of the piece. Great job! ~Joseph
