Life is SO short
Why do people argue?
Then chose not to forgive
Why not love each other?
As long as you shall live
Are mistakes lessons?
Waiting for us to embrace them
Isn’t it time?
Love speaks into the hearts of mankind
A Haiku Poem about the above poem
Life spins at fast pace
Why do people not forgive
So live and forgive
Reflection about both poems
Life is too short not to forgive. Love one another, and forgive their mistakes. You know you would want to be forgiven if you had made a mistake. We all can learn many lessons with our lifetime. Take tthe time to savor moments together. If someone messes up, think about if you were the one that messed up. Then, learn the lesson within the forgiveness.

Live and forgive – great philosophy.

I absolutely agree, thank you for expressing it so beautifully!
Thank you Michelle Renee Kidwell for visiting and for this compliment.
You are right, LaJenna. Forgiveness is very important and principled. Truly forgiving is also very useful for us because it means releasing the heavy burden we carry wherever we go. Besides, empathy is another good lesson from you this time!
Thank you Albert Herdianto Widjojo for your thoughts.

Thank you ellie925 for your thoughts.
What a powerful message in your words LaJenna. If people only knew what it felt like to lose so many close to you, they would never ever argue and always forgive.
Thank you Carol DM for your wise thoughts. All people need to learn to communicate.
