I Forgive You

The weirdest thing happened today.  My sixth grade sweetheart called me.  His name is Jay and he wanted me to forgive him for something that he said and did a long time ago.  I did, of course, very quickly – and then we went on to catching up on each other’s lives.  Twenty years is a long time.  We went to sixth grade, junior high and some of high school together.  I went to his bar mitzvah (a rite of passage for Jewish boys) He was also my prom date in high school.  Wow!  It was so nice to hear from him and catch up.  It really made my day.  So look around at the fellas you are sitting next to in school.  You might get a phone call like mine from one of them.  Forgiveness is good for everyone.  It’s a win- win situation.  People that cannot forgive are the ones who really struggle.  It’s been a good day!
