Forgiveness Quote by T Joseph Benziger
“If you dont do what is your duty on any subject, you cannot pardon yourself for the omission. So acting in time to the best of your ability is the only way to honorably acquit yourself of the events that concern you deeply. Your mind can be freed by this. Trying to release your frustration, fear or any other negative emotion by cursing or condemning would not help; the moment you release it this way, the negative emotion would return with a vengeance to your mind. All sorts of thing are happening in the world. It is our prime responsibility to keep our mind clear and free.”
