Forgiveness
We've repeatedly strained the patience of our best friends to a
snapping point, and have brought out the very worst in those who
didn't think much of us to begin with. In many instances we are
really dealing with fellow sufferers, people whose woes we have
increased. If we are now about to ask forgiveness for ourselves,
why shouldn't we start out by forgiving them, one and all?
