Gallery of Writing - THE FORGIVENESS GARDEN

THE FORGIVENESS GARDEN

Description:

The Forgiveness Garden we are proposing was inspired by the original Forgiveness Garden established in Beirut, Lebanon, and those Forgiveness Gardens established after the tragedy of 9/11. We bear no affiliation to them. We recommend that you explore the works of Dr Luskin of Stanford University. The garden we hope to create here is dedicated to the written word. It is a sounding board for all those who have suffered indignity and feel that there is no place where they can obtain justice or peace. This is an inter denomination effort firmly rooted in the compassion of the great spiritual teachers. It exists to offer peace and compassion to the hurt, the aggrieved, the injured.

Before you begin note the guidelines for submission: We ask that proper names be excluded from your work. You may sign your work. We will remove work that uses speech that misuses language. Hateful or derogatory language are unwelcome. We hold to the Buddhist concept of “right speech.”
