Forgiveness is a habit. It is not one isolated, momentous act. Forgiveness is like hunger. If you get hungry and eat a meal, your hunger will go away. But later on it will return.
Forgiveness is a way of life.
It can become a habit, just as holding onto grievances can become a habit. As we practice seeing people with these magic eyes, we will gradually come to see the deeper truth about ourselves, and about all people, including the ones who hurt us. The truth is this. In this broken world, at one time or another, all of us will experience hurt at the hands of others. And all of us will inflict hurt, intentionally or otherwise, even on the people we love most.
