I found the following in the book, How to Forgive, by John Monbourquette.
The Great Paradoxes of Forgiveness
Easy but often inaccessible
Available but often forgotten
Liberating for the other and even more so for ourselves
On everyone’s lips and yet misunderstood
Innate the human heart and yet illusory
Vital for humans but so often feared
Bestowed upon the soul and yet menacing
Mysterious and yet an everyday occurrence
Utterly divine and utterly human
I love that last line. Christ-like. Always draws us into not only liberation and light, but also emptying of ourselves so as to be filled with the dignity of sons and daughters.
