Forgiven

Today is Global Forgiveness Day and I am thankful. You see I need a lot of forgiveness in my life. I don't know about more then your average person but a lot just the same. I would say that I do something that I need forgiven for everyday. It's true, I'm a sinner. Whether it's not loving my neighbor or speaking harshly to someone I love, I make a lot of mistakes. And I am eternally grateful that for these things I can be forgiven.
Please don't misunderstand I don't just make mistakes and figure well I'll be forgiven for that and go on making them. I try very hard to learn from my mistakes and improve, the thing of it is I keep making new ones. And I'll admit sometimes I'm a slow learner, I've made more repeat offenses then I would care to admit. Anyway, forgiveness makes the forgiven and the forgiver feel better so lets all forgive something today. Go ahead I'll wait.
Ahhh...now wasn't that nice.
