Forgiveness

It is important to remember that, generally, the crimes that we commit against others are worse in our heads than they are in reality.

Often an action of ours that we feel is abhorrent is merely a mistake that others forgive us for much more quickly and quietly than we think that they can.

We may hold our action against ourselves for many years, whilst the person we fear we have hurt or damaged irrevocably has forgotten it many times over, often having forgotten us too.

Let me assure you, whatever you think your terrible crime is against another human being, your crimes are nothing compared to those of Genghis Khan.

Now stop worrying, have a cuddle and a cry, and then go and play outside.
