Buddhist Thought for a Broken Heart

to my wife who's moving on. My sobriety didn't fit her well.

“Forgiveness is the name of love practiced among people who love poorly. The hard truth is that all of us love poorly. We need to forgive and be forgiven every day, every hour—unceasingly. That is the great work of love among the fellowship of the weak that is the human family.”—Henry Christian
