From “The
Human Condition: A User’s Manual” by Arnold Kunst
I think forgiving - the
jettisoning of long-prized garbage - is like pulling weeds: it isn't something
you do, and then it's done. It's something you do, and then do, and then do yet
again. And don't forget the Catholic sailor who confessed to the priest that he
literally had a girl in every port. When the priest asked if he was sorry, the
sailor, embarrassed, admitted truthfully that he wasn't, so the priest told him
wisely, "Tell God you're sorry you're not sorry, and then just assume God
will understand!"
