Forgiveness Quotes...





Forgiveness Quotes


"When you hold resentment toward another,
you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional
link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only
way to dissolve that link and get free."
- Catherine Ponder

tense muscles, a headache, and a sore jaw from clenching
your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and
the lightness in your life."
- Joan Lunden
()

"Forgiveness does not change the past,
but it does enlarge the future."
- Paul Boese
()

"When you haven't forgiven those who've hurt you,
you turn back against your future. When you do forgive,
you start walking forward."
- Tyler Perry
()

"Pray for those who hurt you. You will find yourself eventually
caring for them and wishing them well."
- VF

"He who has not forgiven an enemy has not yet tasted one of
the most sublime enjoyments of life."
- Johann Kaspar Lavater

"There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no
forgiveness without love."
- Bryant H. McGill

"Sincere forgiveness isn't colored with expectations that
the other person apologize or change. Don't worry whether or
not they finally understand you. Love them and release them.
Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time."
- Sara Paddison
()

"True forgiveness is not an action after the fact.
It is an attitude with which you enter each moment."
- David Ridge
()

"Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much."
- Oscar Wilde

Joke - Perplexing Riddle...





Perplexing Riddle

"It's time to see how clearly you can think," the teacher said to
her class.

"Now listen carefully, and think about what I'm saying. I'm thinking
of a person who has the same mother and father as I have. But this
person is not my brother and not my sister. Who is it?"

The kids in the class furrowed their brows, scratched their heads,
and otherwise showed how hard they were thinking. But no one came
up with the right answer.

When everyone in the class had given up, the teacher announced,
"The person is me."

Little Jeffrey beamed at learning the answer. "That's a good one,"
he said to himself. "I'll have to try that on Mom and Dad."

At dinner that night, little Jeffrey repeated the riddle to his parents.

"I'm thinking of a person who has the same mother and father as I
have," he said. "But this person isn't my brother and isn't my sister.
Who is it?"

His parents furrowed their brows, scratched their heads, and
pretended they were thinking very hard. Then they both said,
"I give up. Who is it?"

"It's my teacher!" Jeffrey said.

A Funny - Thoughts to Ponder...






Thoughts To Ponder


  Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure
you are removing a week and not a valuable plant is to pull on
 it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

  The easiest way to find something lost around the house
is
to buy a replacement.

  An unbreakable toy is useful for breaking other toys.

  Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

  Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach that
person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

  Have you noticed, since everyone has a camcorder these days,
no one talks about seeing UFOs like they used to?

  Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.

  All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no
attention to criticism.

  Nothing is impossible if you don't have to do it yourself.

  It's hard to relate to this high-tech world when your kid says
her Lego toys need more memory.

  Okay, I have a million awesome clip art images. Now what?

  I encourage my children to read the newspaper, but they're
holding out for a remote that turns the pages.

  You never get tired if you rest a lot in advance.
