Inspiration – Time Enough
The wisdom voice says: “Be still. Take time for what is truly important.” I imagine myself diving, leaving behind and untidy trail of what’s not needed.

Records

Instead of revenge and resentment we choose understanding and kindness. In forgiveness, we don’t forget that the offense occurred, nor do we excuse it. Forgiveness is a choice and act…
