YES !!!
Someone got their bike back ... GREAT ! This is what matters most to
me.
For reference I did have a bike stolen once ... and someone "caught".
Did I feel an ounce of vengeance or punishment towards the person ? No .
What good does it do me to harbor such feelings of MY heart and mind ? It
only hurts ME. Easier said than done ? Not really ..... it's as easy or
difficult as you choose it to be. I could just as easily say it's easy to
get up in the feeling of being "done wrong" by someone .... easy to want
revenge.... easy to want them to "pay" and be punished . Or is it ? Your
feelings within yourself always reveal that punishment of another hurts
yourself more . Who really wants to hurt anymore ? Each to ask
ourselves..... or not ...
