To Forgive

To forgive is to understand that nothing was done to you,

that it is in the nature of life and the nature of people to move,

speak and take action according to their nature.

And when there is action, you may receive the light or

the dark, or shades of gray.. Laura Huxley wrote

 a book called, You Are

Not the Target...a good reorientation.

To feel the perspective, I love the following expression:

 

The wild geese fly across the long sky above.

Their image is reflected upon the chilly water below.

The geese do not mean to cast their image on the water;

Nor does the water mean to hold the image of the geese.
