Gandhi Was Right: If We All Live

Forgive A Wife-slammer If You Can. But You Don't Have To Live With Him. Forgive A Husband Who Is Abusing Your Children If You Can. But Only After You Kick Him Out Of The House. And If You Can't Get Him Out, Get Help. It's Available. In The Meantime, Don't Let Him Near The Kids, And Don't Let Anyone Tell You That If You Forgive Him It Means You Have To Stay With Him. [there's An Important Difference Between Forgiving A Person And Tolerating Their Bad Behavior.]

You And I Were Created For Joy, And If We Miss It We Miss The Reason For Our Existence. If Our Joy Is Honest Joy, It Must Somehow Be Congruous With Human Tragedy. This Is The Test Of Joy's Integrity. It Is Compatible With Pain. Only The Heart That Hurts Has A Right To Joy.

Some People Ask Who They Are And Expect Their Feelings To Tell Them. But Feelings Are Flickering Flames That Fade After Every Fitful Stimulus. Some People Ask Who They Are And Expect Their Achievements To Tell Them. But The Things We Accomplish Always Leave A Core Of Character Unrevealed.

I Am Personally Thankful That We Live Together In A Large Moral House Even If We Do Not Drink At The Same Fountain Of Faith. The World We Experience Together Is One World, God's World, And Our World, And The Problems We Share Are Common Human Problems. So We Can Talk Together, Try To Understand Each Other, And Help Each Other.

The Only Way To Heal The Pain Which Will Not Heal Itself Is To Forgive The Person Who Hurt You. Forgiveness Heals The Memory's Vision. ... You Set A Prisoner Free, But You Discover The Real Prisoner Was Yourself.
