To My Son, Benjamin
GOD
grant me the
SERENITY
to accept the things
I cannot change
COURAGE
to change the
things I can
and the
WISDOM
to know the difference
FORGIVENESS
Forgiveness is letting go
of the pain
and accepting what has happened,
because it will not change
Forgiveness is dismissing
the blame
Choices were made that
caused the hurt
we each could have chosen
differently
but we didn't
Forgiveness is looking
at the pain,
learning the lessons
it has produced,
and understanding
what we have learned
Forgiveness allows us to move on
towards a better understanding
of universal love
and our true purpose
Forgiveness is knowing that love
is the answer to all questions
and that we all
are in some way connected
Forgiveness is starting over
with the knowledge
that we have gained
I forgive you, and I
forgive myself.
I hope you can do the same
poem by Judith Mammay
Benjamin, I can't change the things thathas caused you so much pain.
I can only tell you how much that I love you, which is more than life itself..
I won't say that I am sorry for my mistakes, because I look at it
differently than you do. It's true it caused so much pain for you, as well
as myself. I have learned from those mistakes
& have grown stronger for them. I thank God everyday for taking me down
that lonely path in my life Benjamin, because I feel I was blessed,
I have you as a Wonderful Son!!
I Love You Ben, Your Mother
