Once innocence is lost it cannot be
regained - experience puts paid to it...
but are there mechanisms by which we
repair our injuries by grace and wit?
Consider, for example, pardoning
a fault or mischief with the firm intent
to carry on without remembering -
this once - when they admit it and repent.
Forgiveness, if reciprocated, may
thus seal a wrong as if it had not been
committed. And regardless of what they
do next, a virgin chapter can begin.
