Sunny Jacobs and Peter Pringle |
Here is a story worthwhile sharing with you and this is the reason. One thing we all find difficult is not being believed and worse, being thought to be guilty of something we didn't do. So, instead of feeling forgiving to whoever thinks this bad thing about you, you become bitter. That bitterness comes back every time the bit that is hurt gets touched. And it isn't welcome, it isn't something anybody wants. I am sure from my own experience that everyone wants to be free and to feel loving, no-one wants to harbour bitter thoughts or resentments. This couple, Sunny and Peter, (see them in the photograph) were both once in prison, both sentenced to death for murders they didn't commit. Are they bitter after all the years of imprisonment and separation from family? No not a bit of bitter left. They have used their experience to create a centre for others to get past any bitterness. The story caught my ear because both of them meditate and speak about it as a way to clear the past and move on. They are looking for ways of insuring that the initiative never fades and just hearing their story may make someone step up and help.
