Very touching and wow, what growth you have to be able to forgive as you know you must.  Resentment is like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to die.  Great and moving post.

Nicki, thank you so much for your lovely comment. Although I must be honest, I am still a work in progress. :) Say a prayer that I can maintain peace and serenity.

I am awed by your capacity for understanding and forgiveness.
