Let us help each other to forgive. Share an experience where you forgave someone and how it helped your faith journey.
 
I forgave my elementary and high school teachers for hitting me so often. It was the culture of corporal punishment in the 60s/70s. Sometimes I deserved it, sometimes not. I remember my brother telling me he was hit 27 times in one day. That was the early 60s . leather straps were used as well as feather duster handles. And canes. Amusing to think how they made orders for stock in those days. "3 leather Straps. 1 metre by 3 cms long" with all the other items like chalk and dusters and exercise books. Checking with other teachers. "would you like me to order some canes for you?"
