Learn To Forgive Myself

dwelling on it only eats away at me, resulting in destructive behaviour. do this and move on

I am not getting any better at this. I keep torturing myself remembering all words i should not have said, all mails I should not have written, feelings i should perhaps have concealed.

How can I be so hard on myself? I would readily forgive everybody and never think again of their mistakes, but when I am doing something wrong, I torture myself over and over. Even the silly things we do as children keep coming back into my mind to embarrass me. Now, isn’t that really stupid?

This is the hardest thing to do. Why is that? I forgive people so easily, but why can’t I forgive myself? Maybe my sins are bigger than I think. Maybe I don’t love myself enough. Maybe this is what I should do: LOVE MYSELF MORE

I made a horrible mistake and hurt a lot of people. I feel that I have been forgiven by all but 2 people. Myself and one other. I feel that if I could gain forgivness from that one other person I could begin to heal. I think about this person a great deal and am truly sorry for the pain I caused her.

for everything that I have done and everything I’ve failed to do….the things that hold me down to the past and only mkae my present a diaster and give no promising future

I have noticed that there are things that I beat myself up for (for days, weeks, or years!) that other people barely notice, eventually forget, and that probably don’t even matter as much as I think they do. This is a pretty ridiculous thing to do if you think about it. Why indulge in self-flagellation when I can actually move on with my life? Why not take these things as learning experiences? After all, between now and the day I die, chances are I will be making a pretty good amount of mistakes, right? Chances are, I will say plenty of stupid things, embarrass myself, feel self-doubt, or any other of a number of things, but instead of beating myself over the head about them, why not just accept making mistakes as a part of life?

for everything I did and didn’t do

self-explanatory…
