Having another wave of inspiration.
And this is directed to a certain someone.

Forgive and Forget.

One of the most valuable lessons I have learnt from my students, is just that.

I can have a horrible scene with a child, and be really upset about it, go home and continue to be upset about it. The next day, still bothered by the event, I see the student again. It is so amazing.
"Hi Miss! How are you today?"

No anger, that I was upset with them yesterday.

They have accepted our conflict, and have moved on. They have forgiven and forgotten.

Why is it so difficult for adults to do this?
Why do we hold grudges for so long?
