You assume that because Samuel is from another

Realm that he knows everything and always tells the truth. Why should we take what he says seriously?

Maybe he was a pizza delivery boy with a 5th grade education in this life. Ever thought of that?

Harmony, and not in the musical sense!

forgiving someone does not mean you have to have anything to do with them...it's a mental process that will set you free from feeling the pain. No, it isn't easy and yes I have a person that I haven't been able to get there with...but it doesn't stop me from continuing to try, in my mind...because I know the payoff is great.

My dreams have to do with creating reality with my mind. It's very enigmatic.

Quirky,

Maybe, but in my experiences when you have someone who continues to harass you without good cause, lies about you without any valid reason, then in my opinion its best to stay as far away from them as possible and look for times they will strike again. I see it as its their problem, not mine if I have never given reason or action to cause them to plague me. I don't see I should forgive someone whom attacks me as a person to forgive of their sins, just avoid at all costs. God will take care of them in the end. Shadow

yes, I know...but those are EXACTLY the ones that need forgiveness the most, not for them but for ourselves.

Quirky,

I really, really try to forgive, but there are just some people out there that you couldn't forgive if they strung up a rope with noose, placed it around their own necks and slapped the horse themselves. Shadow

Quirky,

My purpose here is to respect and love and learn to appreciate my fellow human beings. Well at least until one of them piss me off. Shadow

Samuel speaks the wisdom which many have spoken throughout the ages.  BTW:  Tonight is the final "Survivor" I'm sure you'll be watching.  Who do want to see win the Mil?  I'm routing for Stephanie.  But I'll be happy if it's Rafe, as well.
