The temple of forgiveness is within your heart, if you wish to be free, you must ask God to release the hatred within you. ~ Spiritual Truths @TheGodLight

Temples are for worship,
for serenity, for peace with power.
What can forgiveness have to do
with a temple, much less be one
or have one exclusively?
Forgiveness means a wrong
happened, something that hurts.
Temples and hurt —
polar opposites, ne’er the twain
to meet. But freedom,
precious freedom, the pearl
to be sought, to get by sacrifice,
to sell all else for. First – a must??!! —
let hatred be released – even ASK
to lose the enmity? She doesn’t deserve
forgiveness. He must be punished
by my scorn, my derision
forever. But freedom, precious,
the pearl… Worth any price?
Worth giving up my loathing,
my contempt, my hate?
What a price!
What a prize…
