This is one of the most moving three minutes of audio I’ve ever listened too. An incredible story of forgiveness, taking responsibility, and second chances.

There are not a lot of people who forgive like that but maybe more than you’d think.
This reminds me of an episode of The Moth that includes Al Sharpton talking about coming to terms with the need to forgive the man who stabbed him — http://themoth.org/posts/episodes/episode-1101 — it’s a tough story told well.
