Indeed, I did write to you offering friendship. Words are exchanged, some nice and some not so nice..... those words can never be taken back or changed. However, each breath that my Father allows me to take gives me an opportunity to change and reflect before I make the same mistakes over and over. Indeed, I have learned how to forgive, not just others but myself and take the opportunities offered in each new day. Perhaps you are not to this point yet, but I hope that one day you too can learn to live each day as if it were your last. And when you take your next breath and think about saying something unpleasant, either to yourself or others you become mindful that it may be your last breath and will never have the opportunity to make amends or ask them to forgive your tone or words.

Again, I hold no animosities toward you. I have no dog in your fights. So, if you wish to continue to try and insult me, it will not work because I have forgiven you for the past and I will forgive you for anything you say today, tomorrow, or eternity. I know that we could never be friends or hold any hope that you would permit civil discussions. But, miracles still happen... who knows, one day you too may learn to lay the past to rest and move forward.
