“When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.”

Alan Paton

Reflection: What this quote by Alan Paton means is that when someone does something really bad to us then we can only do one thing that will heal us and set us free from that grudge and it is to forgive. Forgiveness is the only way to freedom. An example is when a friend pressures his other friend to take out their phone so they can look at an inappropriate website and he listens because he said the teacher won’t see. Next thing you know the teacher saw and took away the phone and saw what they were doing. The boy got it back the next Friday but was really mad at his friend because he trusted him. The friend said I am sorry can you forgive me? And the friend said yes.
