RUSHING to drop Czia in the morning today, we had a pretty close shave! Actually, a speeding metro train ran over us; the only saving grace being the fact that it was running on top of the bridge underneath which we had been passing! Mercii Lord!
I was just going through my mail today when I came across this interesting Jewish saying.....
"A Jewish wife will forgive and forget, but, she'll neverforget what she forgave."
.........well, this could be as dangerous as the metro train episode. On a serious note, though, these lines hide a deeper meaning when we look at our daily lives and inter-personal relationships. What is better? To forgive and forget OR to forgive but not forget OR neither forgive nor forget! I think the lighter we keep the mass of our baggage, better it turns out for us. Not forgetting and/or not forgiving would only add some extra stones to an already heavy bandolier of ours. Having said that, how easy is to actually forget even if one decided to forgive! Debate can continue but sooner we got into a mode of travelling light, better would it be. Not only would our journey ahead become more pleasant, we would also have fewer irritants to look into every now and then.
T-3 entered its last week today. Post exams that would be held soon thereafter, we would be off to our summer internships. For the uninitiated, it would be an education, and a real one while for others, it would be more like re-visiting the old pastures. I wish you all the luck for exams as well as summer internship (not, though, that I will not be here on more than one occasions before we say bye-bye to each other)!
