To: The Ghost of FReepers Past
What we can forgive are personal offenses directed at us specifically, as individuals. THAT we are called to do and THAT is very difficult. We love to say we forgive someone at a distance whose offense was directed at someone else or the collective us. We hate to fogive the smallest personal slight. We demand justice for ourselves but shortchange others.

"THAT" is soooo true!

LOL! I suppose italics would have been a more subtle emphasis.
