Why is remorse such a wonderful gift?

Try and look at it like this—

In regard to those who from any motive have injured you, believe that if you could see things as they really are, the only feeling you would have for them would be infinite compassion, and forgiveness would cease to have any meaning between you.

You cannot either intentionally—or through carelessness—injure another without immediately creating regret, for the days which are to come, and that is why remorse is such a wonderful gift. Turn over in your mind the responsibility of withholding forgiveness.
