She might have said more, but he took the breath from her lips, and held her so close to his heart that she could feel its tumultuous beatings. "But I can never forgive myself, darling." "Oh, yes you will!" The creature pursed up her lips and offered them for his kiss thus, as she thought, tempting him into self-forgiveness.
Doubtless each one of us recalled actions of petty tyranny toward leal, loving, helpless dependents, or inferiors in strength actions which now seemed to rise from the irrevocable past, proclaiming their exemption from that moral statute of limitations which brings self-forgiveness in course of time.
A few years hence, when you are a new woman, you will, I am sure, look back with wonder and pity as if reading the memoir of another. I know that spells of self-forgiveness come to us mercifully."
But neither of them were under any illusion, and neither cared to affect that peculiar form of self-forgiveness which finds good reasons always for doing what is always pleasant. Orsino, indeed, never pressed his services and was careful not to be seen too often in public with Maria Consuelo by the few acquaintances who were in town.
Buddha taught that all sin is ignorance, and this teaching has escaped oblivion because its truth has echoed in so many human hearts. We find that it is possible to deal with our old ignorances in the light of later knowledge. What is this but the self-forgiveness of sins? Subconsciously we may be always at work, mending the past.
It was a tragical-comical dilemma for Kedzie. Even she, with her gift for self-forgiveness, could not quite see how she was to explain prettily to her husband that in his absence she had fallen in love with another man. Wives are not supposed to fall in love while their husbands are at the wars. It has been done, but it is hard to prettify.
If there is no punishment for sin there can be no self-forgiveness for it. If Christ paid our score, and if there is no hell and therefore no chance of our getting into trouble by forgetting the obligation, then we can be as wicked as we like with impunity inside the secular law, even from self-reproach, which becomes mere ingratitude to the Savior.
That enemy is himself, and self-forgiveness is the most difficult, as it is the last to obtain." "That may be all so, but I'd a given him some, I swanny, if I had a ketched him in my grainery," said Colwell. "I never see it in Fabens's light afore," interrupted Teezle. "Nor I," "nor I," added others; and the discussion ended.
Your own self-forgiveness will be slow. But I, who have known you better than any one, yes, better than any one, I have forgiven you everything, have forgiven you instantly. Come to me, Alice, and comfort me. Come to me, for I want you sorely." She sat quite still, looking at the lake and the mountain beyond, but she said nothing. What could she say to him?
The cowardice that held me here while a man's life might have been saved by me. That's going to haunt me as long as I live." "Bosh!" scoffed Gavin. "You'll get over it. Self-forgiveness is the easiest blessing to acquire. You're better of it, already, or you couldn't talk so glibly about it.
