There have been some very powerful film and books on the virtues of reconciliation and forgiveness after a tragedy.
They can be a comfortable antidote that restores one soul in humanity after a tragedy like Newton.
I highly recommend anyone interested to check these out, they are widely available on Netflix, Amazon, libraries, and video stores.....There are others; search them out.
Our humanity can be an amazing gift.
