SO GOOD QUOTES

He said to me: “I have forgiven him for his disloyalty to me
after I had left all my secrets in his hands. I forgave him because of the Lord’s commandment and because we had been together as servers in the Church for a long time, but…”

Then when I asked him, “But what … ?”, he answered with a
profound gaze,

“Forgiveness is one thing and trust something else…”

I have forgiven him but I no longer trust him, because of his
disloyalty. I no longer tell him my secrets. I don’t leave my
office open for him any more. I simply don’t have confidence in him any longer.
