Forgiveness

Mother never speak English but maybe few words.  She teach this woman about Jesus in her way.  

She says forgive more times than can count.  


She pick up small hand of sand and say “can you Gentle count these?”  I say “Yes!”.  
 
She say “then put forgive of self and others one on each grain."  Mother throw that over shoulder and pick up another small hand of sand.  
 
I am pretty smart so say first “what if I pick up all the sand on Mother Earth and put forgive on each grain, then where is more sand, on the planets?” Now thinking she will say go to each planet and put forgive on each grain of sand there, I say “and what if I go to all the stars I see too and do the same, then can I stop forgiving?” thinking this is game.  
 
She smiles and says, “then you Gentle will see more stars than you see today.”
