And the question is, that kind of person who has been wronged, who has been broken, and the hurt, can he really forgive? Does he really know what forgiveness is all about? Is he able to forgive?
And even if he doesn't forgive, will you blame him or her for not forgiving? Have you gone through his ordeal to experience what he feels for not forgiving?
So, in one breath, we see the importance of forgiveness. And in that breath, we envision, it personifies somebody who is going through pain, or who has gone through pain, and it's crossing between the meaning of forgiveness, and even exemplifying and living that forgiveness that Jim preached here. So, it's a thought-provoking poem.
It's a thought-provoking poem. It sends us back, the readers, to contemplation, to cogitation. We have to go back to think.
Not just mounting forgiveness. Can you really forgive? Are we able to forgive in some very difficult situations? So, it's something that is thought-provoking. Thank you, Doug, for this wonderful piece.
It's something that has to go back to really internalize and understand in detail what the message is. You try to, the muse is it. So, I really appreciate you for this thought-provoking piece.
Thank you. It's a well-thought-out piece. Thank you.
Thank you very much, Bias, to Jeff. I was captivated by a line, by a few lines, where Doug said, the preachers of unconditional forgiveness are those who are dancing on roses. They know nothing about the depth of our wounds, about the blood of our tears.
The people that actually have no clue of the pains that we have or that we are passing through are the biggest preachers.
Yes, because they tell us to forgive even when they cannot feel the pain, you know. Earlier I was talking about a dove that has been caged, you know. There is no freedom.
