To Err Is Human, But To Forgive Is Divine. Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

To err is human, but to forgive is divine.
After all, I do know about having a
green online editor, correcting
my spelling and grammatical errors.

To forgive is divine when someone
either says or does something to
cause you either emotional and/or
physical pain. Harboring resentment
and hostility is part of the game.

Could I make myself anymore plain?
Jesus Christ carefully taught his
disciples to forgive others,
if they desired God to forgive them.

I know from many long and hard years
of personal experience. I will
tell you so in a heartbeat.
Revenge is poisonous to both
the spirit and soul.
It is bitterness and not
in the least bit sweet.

Causing anger management problems,
and mental illness. I used to
have a violent and explosive temper.
I would stay awake nights.
Believe me, if I tell you
it is not alright.

I would lie if I did not say
I harbored unforgiveness in my
heart. Even though Jesus
Christ promises me daily
a brand new start.

To err is human, but to completely
forgive people is divine.
Failure to do so only serves
to containment our bodies
and our minds.
