After it happened, I spent a moment or two taking stock of the situation. How was I supposed to feel?
Indeed, how should I react when someone, and I know full well that they should know better, got it so wrong. Epic fail! A 'schoolboy error' - something so basic, it's crashingly obvious that their mind was not on what they were doing.
Forgive them, said the still, small voice that I know so well.
How often?, I said.
Seventy times seven, came the reply I expected. You just keep on forgiving them.
Okay then, I said. But will they ever learn? And will I have enough patience in the meantime?
That's not for you to know. Just do your bit. Leave the rest to me.
