Joy is Effort to Forgive

Erin Runnion, Founder of The Joyful Child Foundation - In Memory of Samantha Runnion, discusses lessons learned about cultivating and protecting joy since her 5-year-old daughter's abduction and murder in 2002. This month's theme is inspired by The Book of Joy by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu with Douglas Abrams and the latest chapter is on Forgiveness. Erin shares about doing the practices referenced in the book, Forgive for Good by Dr. Fred Luskin, to let go of the anger and resentment of her daughter's abduction and murder allows her to devote her energy to her daughter's memory and legacy.
