A sign said "Listen and Silence have the same letters." Well, that is not quite right but the sentiment is. When we listen, we are silent, but we are active. It is hard and it is good.

]]> Comment on Hurting People Hurt People. Forgive to Be Free by Jason Shick http://hearttales.net/2009/07/hurting-people-hurt-people-forgive-and-be-free/#comment-16 Jason Shick Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:54:48 +0000 http://hearttalesblog.net/?p=208#comment-16 Great post about forgiveness. We really are like the lady with the sack of stones. The problem is it usually gets so heavy that we can't really do anything in our lives without it being affected by our "sack" of stones. Many times we can carry grudges and unforgiveness against people who don't even know (or think) they did anything wrong. I heard somebody comment recently that if you went to all the people who have offended you over the years and said "I just want you to know I forgive you" most of them would respond by getting upset and saying "what are you talking about?" The next time you are carrying a bag of unforgiveness and it is weighing you down, just remember that the person who through the rock is running around having a good day. They aren't thinking about it, pouring over it, rehashing it in their minds, and having a bad day - only you are. Every time you think about what happened again, it's like you taking the stone out of the bag and giving it to somebody to throw at you a second time. What's the point, just let it go.
