Things That Work / Moving Forward

 

Nothing erases the past. There is repentance, there is atonement, and there is forgiveness. That is all, but that is enough.

- Ted Chiang, The Merchant and the Alchemist’s Gate (2007)

None of us can change the past, but when time is right, we all need to be ready to move on. Or, as one friend often said, "Thus encouraged, we press on."

We all make mistakes. We say and do things we live to regret. 

And yet, there is grace and forgiveness. We can all begin again.
