And be aware that people fall under one of two categories: they are either your brother and sister in faith, or they are your counterpart in humanity. ↗
Those who learn not how to hurt those who hurt, but learn to forgive those who hurt. For they must have grown, hurt themselves. ↗
Because forgiveness is like this: a room can be dank because you have closed the windows, you've closed the curtains. But the sun is shining outside, and the air is fresh outside. In order to get that fresh air, you have to get up and open the window and draw the curtains apart. ↗
Forgiveness is easy because God will judge us according to our heart and deeds. ↗

Not to forgive is to be imprisoned by the past, by old grievances that do not permit life to proceed with new business. Not to forgive is to yield oneself to another's control... to be locked into a sequence of act and response, of outrage and revenge, tit for tat, escalating always. The present is endlessly overwhelmed and devoured by the past. Forgiveness frees the forgiver. It extracts the forgiver from someone else's nightmare. ↗
If truth doesn't set you free, generosity of spirit will. ↗

But a key is a little thing, next to the door it opens. If you lose the key, the door may never be unlocked. It is in our bodies that we lose or begin our freedom, in our bodies that we accept or end our slavery. So I wrote this book for my friend, with whom I have lived and will die free. ↗
