1. The bitter past

    23

    Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future. ~Lewis B. Smedes

  2. Letting go is the lesson

    Comment

    Letting go is the lesson. Letting go is always the lesson. Have you ever noticed how much of our agony is all tied up with craving and loss? ~Susan Gordon Lydon

  3. Beauty in the Forest

    52

    There is beauty in the forest
    When the trees are
    green and fair,
    There is beauty in the meadow
    When wild flowers
    scent the air,
    There is beauty in the sunlight
    And the soft blue beams above,
    Oh the world is full of beauty
    When the heart is full of love.

    ~Author Unknown

    Always think of your mind as a garden, and keep it beautiful and fragrant with divine thoughts. ~Paramahansa Yogananda
