Forgiveness

Reflection: In the clip we saw about forgiveness, they spoke about a driver by the name of Eric Smallridge, who was under the influence and stuck another car and killed 2 women, both named Megan and Lisa. The story goes on where he gets sentenced 22 years in prison, but because of change of heart from Megan’s mothers, Renee, his sentence got cut short and he was released earlier than anticipated.  As a result, Renee and Eric have traveled been to various high schools to speak about the dangers of drinking and driving. Renee’s forgiveness not only cut Eric’s sentence short, but it gave them the opportunity to educate the youth about drinking responsibly and the precautions to take before causing a fatal tragedy on the road.
