Life is too short to bear ill will against anybody.
And even more than this very practical reason, we have as model God's love. It is for all. It doesn't discriminate.
It is totally gratuitous. It doesn't depend on whether we are good or bad, or on whether we accept it or not.
If I will just look at life and at my experiences from this perspective, my attitude will change.
I'll learn to be more grateful, without clinging on the good that happens in my life.
I'll be more trusting and forgiving, believing that each person tries his/her best, that we do not really mean to hurt each other.
I'll be more joyful. I, with my limitations, am not in control. There is a loving Power in whose hands my life and my history rest. I will not be afraid because He has the last word, and it is "mercy".
