Forgiveness - The Greatest Gift

"If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility." -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Forgiveness is the greatest gift that you can give.

I don't see sixteen Dislikes;

Instead, I see sixteen opportunities to practice Forgiveness.

I just forgave my greatest enemy today, the person who screwed me up so badly. I'm honestly really scared and nervous at the thought of it. But i'm glad I did. Thank you for posting this video :) It gave me the courage to stay strong.

I'm not religious but I heard this amazing quote from Constantine the Great's main right hand man:

"God forgives those who ask for it"

How true is that!

I'd like to use this for my Priest Quorum lesson tomorrow. I think it'll be a powerful video that will emphasize the miracle of forgiveness.

And wow, I commented like, 5 seconds into the vid. I just now got to the picture of the school house. Honestly, that's within a 10 minute walk of my house. I grew up with that schoolhouse being there. Now, you can't even tell that it ever existed; it's just a field. The only thing that remains is a tiny bit of the driveway. For years, people from every part of the nation would bring flowers such as a tribute. It's remarkable that their amazing story of forgiveness was able to reach so many.

I feel so blessed to have grown up immersed in the Amish community. I'm not amish, but the victims of the Nickle Mine school shooting are practically my neighbors. It was such a humbling, awe inspiring message and I feel so blessed be taught a lesson in forgiveness from these amazing people.

Wow....how touching and mind opening! I think there are not many that can say they hold no grudges, that they have forgiven all of everything...Makes you re-think things!

Lingering hatred and seeking retribution is like throwing gasoline on fire. Forgiveness is the clear water that quells our ills.

Why the continuation of 911 tears us apart, we will never heal as a nation. It's all about Reconciliation, Forgiveness and all we extend to other nations is our power of military force and harming our own further. Any Organised Religious leader who claimed righteousness in our wars was flat out wrong, and I pray to the Lord the that all Americans will come to recognize the deception being done in their name.
