"Forgiveness does not change the past but it does enlarge the future."
- Paul Lewis Boese

Almost every quote about forgiveness - every sincere quote, not the snide ones - demonstrates the wisdom of forgiving. Today's touchstone quote is among them. 

Forgiveness makes room for opportunities, for deepened friendships and authentic relationships, for intimate sharing, for ah-ha insights, for healing and growing, for peace, for joy, and more.

If we are holding any grudges, let's release them today. 

With love and compassion,
Charlene

PS - Compassion is wise too.

THE FOURTH GIFT IS COMPASSION
May you be gentle with yourself and others.
May you forgive those who hurt you
and yourself when you make mistakes.
- from The Twelve Gifts of Birth
