More From Mignon McLaughlin

Forgive yourself for not being the richest, the thinnest, the tallest, the one with the best hair. forgive yourself for not being the most successful, the cutest or the one with the fastest time. forgive yourself for not winning every round. forgive yourself for being afraid. but don’t let yourself off the hook, never forgive yourself, for not caring or not trying.
Successful Caring Winning
They say that when god was in jerusalem he forgave his murderers, but now he will not forgive an honest man for differing with him on the subject of the trinity. they say that god says to me, "forgive your enemies." i say, "i do;" but he says, "i will damn mine." god should be consistent. if he wants me to forgive my enemies he should forgive his. i am asked to forgive enemies who can hurt me. god is only asked to forgive enemies who cannot hurt him. he certainly ought to be as generous as he asks us to be.

I worry about fast forgivers. they tend to forgive quickly in order to avoid their pain. or they forgive fast in order to get an advantage over the people they forgive. and their instant forgiving only makes things worse... people who have been wronged badly and wounded deeply should give themselves time and space before they forgive... there is a right moment to forgive. we cannot predict it in advance; we can only get ourselves ready for it when it arrives... don't do it quickly, but don't wait too long.
Forgiveness Pain Order
There is a saying that to understand is to forgive, but that is an error, so papa used to say. you must forgive in order to understand. until you forgive, you defend yourself against the possibility of understanding. ... if you forgive, he would say, you may indeed still not understand, but you will be ready to understand, and that is the posture of grace.

It is an unquestionable truth, that the body of the people in every country desire sincerely its prosperity. but it is equally unquestionable that they do not possess the discernment and stability necessary for systematic government. to deny that they are frequently led into the grossest of errors, by misinformation and passion, would be a flattery which their own good sense must despise.
