Forgiveness

Haiku Forgiveness

I saw one who could
not forgive the very great Hurt;
Judged it by effect!

For them selves judged by
motive always pure and true;
others by effect.

This  double standard
never noticed in their mind;
made life difficult!

If the scripture said
forgive to be forgiven
some excuse be made

To allow the sin
to be dropped, overlooked;
Remission given.

The forgiver
discovers himself is the
one who is set free!
