With understanding

comes strength. The strength to walk

with a wrongdoer through criticism and resentment knowing that you too have

erred. Understanding that to make a

mistake that can never be corrected, to have hurt an innocent child or caused

great unhappiness to another, is easily criticised but not easily

understood. We have all hurt another, we

have all harmed a child, the reason we are driven to punish wrongdoers is

because deep in our memory we know we too have been guilty. Try to offer understanding and love, it will

rarely be accepted kindly but later when all is quiet and the soul sleeps you

will have helped to heal and for that soul to pass more quickly through the

lesson. Is easy to offer love to the victim,

offer it where it is most needed, the wrongdoer, they are learning a difficult

lesson and need your understanding to help them with it.
