Forgiveness

Amongst all the news concerning the Amish children, I found this gem over at the Christian Science Monitor (here).

While Roberts is now gone, the Amish example of forgiveness is a reminder that real safety lies less in acting out of fear to prevent violence and more on qualities such as forgiveness that better connect people. Such compassion reduces fears and reaches those prone to violence.
