Second, Third and Fourth Chances

-
It is a common belief that when a person says or does something wrong that they're only given a certain amount of "chances" before they feel the "obligation" to never forgive or forget. It has occurred to me that maybe we all need a different number to live by. Maybe a person has angered or hurt you for a third time in your life, and maybe the fourth time can be "the time" when it finally gets better or what we would consider back to normal. How would you ever know if your standards are set on 3 strikes and your out? Maybe we should focus on all the good things in life so that the bad things won't seem to matter as much anymore. I figure if we can still dig up good memories and they make us smile, then maybe their is hope. I sure can't live my life wondering what if. The Bible tells us that for a relationship to succeed, communication is key. I think it's time that I practice what I preach before it's too late.
