What Does it Take to be Forgiven?

There is not much I can do when a person I love is angry with me.  I can say I am sorry but that does not erase deeds done.  I can rationalize my perspective but that does not offer any insight into the mind of the other person.  There is no guide to the path, their reasons, for feeling the way they do against me.  I pray for wisdom … I hold my tongue, when I try too hard to “fix” a relationship; I fail and often make matters worse.

  1. There are parallel lives in your journey. I wonder where mine was when this was written. I wonder what I might have done differently to put myself into a different place than I am now. Instant reactions are sometimes unintended decisions. Regret cannot take them back.
