Heart of the Matter

...Committed love does not say "finish" before the last act is played out. It gives us the strength to tough out bad times in the hope of better times. Committed love does not throw in the towel before the fight is really over. It holds on. And while it holds, it energizes, it keeps your strength to keep the door open for the day when new beginning is possible. It is forgiveness that supplies the healing stream of the long term tomorrows.

...The only way to heal the pain that will not heal itself is to forgive the person who hurt you. Forgiving stops the reruns of pain. Forgiving heals your memory as you change your memory's vision.

...So we shall ask: why forgive? And we shall answer: Because forgiving is the only way we have to a better fairness in our unfair world; it is love's unexpected revolution against unfair pain and it alone offers strong hope for healing the hurts we so unfairly feel.
