Thank YOU Francis --
This:
"But the reward is that life is so much lighter and void of judgment.
I'd rather forgive than be in suffering. And if I'm going to forgive them, how do I set limits on that. I don't. I choose to forgive everyone."
---is just more of the healing essence that this world needs. I'm similar to you....but married to one who I think draws lines too firmly. I'll never understand it-- I love what you say that we chose loving decisions -- then they would arrive at a different conclusion.
I talk to my sons a lot about it...I believe the capacity to forgive is just a limitless gift that only a few are able to understand its essence. You do -- and I hope to keep writing to move this world to be more loving, more forgiving.
Keep writing -- I'm reading!!!
