Forgiveness

When I look at my life sometimes I can’t help but laugh. I can be such a hypocrite, it’s really pretty sad. Why am I so quick to pass the blame on someone else or overlook my same mistakes?

I should stop trying to fix everybody else and start with myself.

Forgiveness is easier said than done. But that’s because I’ve put myself out of place. If I could look at others as I am looked upon by You, I’d surely extend much more grace.

Sometimes I think it would be nice to see me through other people’s eyes. Or maybe I wouldn’t even want to spend time with myself.

He who’s one is none; he who’s none is one, just maybe not today. So why am I so eager to take first now and later fall away?
