I heard this on the radio a few weeks ago, and decided to share:

"To refuse to forgive is to burn a bridge over which you yourself must pass."
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

Mahatma Gandhi   :winkgrin:

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

If we practice and eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,

soon the whole world will be blind and toothless.
Jesus is the reward  !!

Did you know that the tooth or teeth are examples of the mind ..... that which chews upon the word .....

And just like it breaks down food making it easier to digest so does the mind of Christ do it for us
Wisdom is not measured by time, it is measured by understanding

 :cloud9: I can see that.  :thumbsup:  It reminded me of something, the 21st letter in Hebrew, letter shin, one of it's meanings is that of "tooth". Blessings...
