With all the events happening in America this past week, I have to single out one which impressed me the most. To me, the event in Charleston was the most emotional thing in my memory. The nation was given an unforgettable lesson in the joyful experience that love and forgiveness can bring.
Forgiveness is a wonderful thing. It goes hand and hand with a supreme love of humans. Forgiveness is what we all like to believe is the best feeling that a human heart can feel toward another human. It exalts all humans.
Forgiveness is both tearful and joyful at the same time. It cleanses and purifies. It lifts the human heart to the heights of heaven. Gravity is overcome. To the religious, forgiveness is a miracle which comes from the grace of a merciful and loving God. To the non-religious, it is the best expression of what whole-hearted passion and compassion are capable of. Forgiveness unites one heart to another heart.
