The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.

It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute... that gives meaning to our lives.

Good Comes from Bad things
Yesterday I had an appointment with a woman (my friend) who lost her daughters in a fire. She said something very profound "when something bad happens something always good comes from it."
I asked her "what do you feel good came from your daughters deaths?"
She said "due to their death many peoples lives have been saved. We were able to help many people also."
When the fire happened the girls were trapped in their bedroom, the windows were the only way out. Unfortunately they were too high for the girls to reach as well as too narrow for their father to rescue them through.
After the fire occurred my friend was interviewed by several news papers. Due to those articles it brought attention to the hazardous windows. Many people in the neighborhood soon after the tragedy replaced their windows with safer ones.
Due to the lost of their daughters they sought out other people that were in need of help. They had the need to help heal other wounded hearts. Through the years, my friends, have taken in many individuals that would have been other wise homeless.
