"Just because we forgive, does not mean we close our eyes and let them hurt our children all over again. Just because we do our part and forgive, does not mean they did their part and did the healing and took accountability for their actions. A rattle snake always does what a rattle snake does, no matter how nice you are to them. If you feel the need to let you or your children to go pet one, just because you forgave him, and he promised to never bite you again, be my guest." - Christopher Beach 12.6.13
I like to say "Forgiveness doesn't mean invite them to dinner" - Patricia Lite Hickman
