Love and Forgiveness

        When we harbor negative emotions toward others or toward ourselves, or when we intentionally create pain for others, we poison our own physical and spiritual systems. Be far the strongest poison to the human spirit is the inability to forgive oneself or another person. It disables a person's emotional resources.

        The challenge .. is to refine our capacity to love others as well as ourselves and to develop the power of forgiveness.
