Forgiveness is not easy

To give to others when we're wronged.

But if we do not give it

Our hurt and pain will be prolonged.

Like a wound that is infected

And gets worse as time goes by.

We can not just ignore it

No matter how hard that we try.

Sometimes there are no reasons

For the things that people do.

No excuses or explanations

That justify what they put us through.

But remember...Jesus told us to forgive

The same way our Father forgives us.

So we can move toward the love

Instead of staying bitter and callused.

Forgiveness releases the negative

That has consumed and taken over.

It frees us. To love and live again

As our hardened heart grows softer.

Yes...Forgiveness can be very hard

But it's something we must do.

If we want God to forgive us

Then...We must forgive others too !

"L'amour est cette ombre parfumée qui ne vous quitte jamais.

Vivre ce lien comme si l'autre  était l'ombre vivante de soi et

soi l'ombre vivante de l'autre."

"Love is this perfumed shadow which never leaves you.

Live this link as if the other one was the alive shadow of one,

and one the alive shadow of the other one."

"Tant qu'il y aura des yeux reflétant les yeux qui les regardent;

Tant qu'une lèvre répondra en soupirant à la lèvre qui soupire;

Tant que deux âmes pourront se confondre d'un baiser;

Tant qu'il existera une femme belle, il y aura de la poésie !"

"As long as there will be eyes reflecting the eyes which look at them;

As long as a lip will answer by sighing with the lip which sighs;

As long as two souls can become confused of a kiss;

As long as there will be a beautiful woman, there will be poetry !"
