So to revert to forgiveness ... you write well about it here ... <br /><br /> "Forgiveness is a bridge of healing to yourself. Forgiveness is a wide brush, whose stroke is a rainbow of colors."<br /><br />We need to forgive, heal and think of others ... now I could think of your green beans and wish I was in your garden ...

We must learn to be careful of all bridges in life for many can lead to self-destruction.<br /><br />Today I am thankful for good friends and family in my life who help me to cross and ignore the many bridges presented to me each day.<br /><br />Ah, fresh green beans!

Love this sentiment. I don't believe in "forgive and forget." Should be "forgive and learn." Not all transgressions are purposely done, but there are some that take advantage of good hearted people.<br /><br />This was an awesome entry Bish.

Those families who are able to forgive the killer of their child show us the way. The images you found are wonderful too.<br /><br />It's been too hot in Oz this past summer to grow much except herbs and even some of those got fried. Looking forward to growing fresh cherry tomatoes again. Yum.<br /><br />Thanks for joining us Bish with such a great entry.<br /><br />Denise :-)Denise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-75801102890780318732017-06-21T15:30:05.711-05:002017-06-21T15:30:05.711-05:00So many different meanings for the prompt, thanks ...So many different meanings for the prompt, thanks for sharing!Laura Clipsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02748489198957473503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-65922622525048440192017-06-21T14:33:58.713-05:002017-06-21T14:33:58.713-05:00I love your words about forgiveness.

I'm trying to be a better gardener this year, but with the extra rain of the past month, the weeds are winning. And by weeds, I mean grass. Grass is evil. We put down that special black garden-cloth to discourage weeds in the gardens, but grass just goes right through it and then binds with the cloth to make it even harder to remove. Grrr. Plus I need to trim bushes and remove several dead soldiers including one tree and two holly bushes. At least it's great exercise.Tamara Narayanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03725262301091012950noreply@blogger.com
