Quote from Guest:
Guest post by "Amy" Isn't that sweet. I will have to keep this in mind if I ever get violently harassed, or jumped. I'll just forgive my attackers. I bet a construction paper crown would look really, really pretty on me too while I'm lying in a hospital bed. Or on a slab in the morgue. I have been attacked. Forgiveness isn't the same thing as 'letting down your defenses' nor is it 'refusing to fight back'. It's not even 'turning the other cheek'. Forgiveness isn't laying yourself open to attack, it's clearing yourself of the poison that taints you afterward and the demons that gnaw at your bones from there on in. Leastways, that's how I see it. I can't even say that I'm able to forgive yet. But when I get there, I'll lay a lot of my demons to rest. |
