I TODAY'S MEDITATION
by J. Spence McDonald
It is almost human nature to be vindicative, to want
to hurt somebody who has hurt us and at times we
have tried to do just that ... we have tried to re
taliate only to learn that revenge is quite empty
■ after all. It rarely hurts the one to whom it is direct
ed and most often it injures the person from whom
it stems.
