Forgiveness is not a matter of exonerating people who have hurt you. They may not deserve exoneration. Forgiveness means cleansing your soul of the bitterness of what might have been, what should have been, and what didn't have to happen.

Harold Kushner

Our souls are hungry for meaning, for the sense that we have figured out how to live so that our lives matter, so that the world will be at least a little bit different for our having passed through it.... What frustrates us and robs our lives of joy is this absence of meaning.... Does our being alive matter?
