Um, is there room on the bench for me? I’m right there with ya today. Except without the excuse of chronic pain. *sigh

Gosh. You’re human. You make mistakes. You do things that you regret. You apologize. You say you were wrong and you ask for forgiveness. And then you beat yourself to a pulp and refuse to give yourself the one thing you are asking from those you think you hurt: forgiveness.

This is a terrible burden to carry. Unforgiveness (word?) can eat away at you like acid. Let it go. You erred. You asked forgiveness. You repented. If that is all God asks of you, you or anyone else shouldn’t demand any more than that.

Learn from the experience and go on with your life. Grow and go. That IS life.

Sorry about this, I have been in this place. It will get better with time.

We all say and do things we don’t mean sometimes. Try not to be too hard on yourself (I know it’s easier said than done, because I’m pretty self-critical), and step back a little from the situation. I hope that things work out.

Yes, I totally agree to that.

Ouch. I have heard that when a bone is broken, when it heals its stronger in that spot than before. So it will be with you and your loved ones. Blessings on you and yours.

It is obvious from your words that you hurt someone you care about. I hope they read this and see how remorseful you are. We all should get forgiveness occasionly – sometimes when we don’t deserve it – because it reminds us to be grateful someone loves us enough to grant that. I hope you get the forgiveness you’re looking for. From whomever you hurt – and most especially from yourself.

I obviously don’t know what happened in detail, but I think you’re way, way, way too hard on yourself. What you’re living through is hard! Cut yourself some slack. We can only do the best we can in any moment.

Well sounds like you had a real bad day.said things did things you wish you did no do.The good news you have taken ownership over the day.First to say sorry does help.If it was love ones you hurt they will forgive as life is to short to not to plus We all have had our moments.The big thing is to know what stress does to people. put chronic pain on this .You have a melt down. I Know you do not want to get behind and regret to half to take 3 weeks off But sounds like a divine intervention.so enjoy it think .You are very young You will get through school.Life is life It is short so visit those you love look at the sky smell the air play with your cats and be glad you are who you are.a smart lady with huge time in front of her.

Oh heck. I’m really sorry, I hate those days. And I’ve had them, in number. They always look a little less awful a sun-up or two later, but I also hate that hot, sting of embarrassment I get when I know it was me that screwed up.

Hang in there. The part of the road you’re standing on right now may be just plain awful, but keep walking forward and it’ll start to smooth out. I promise.

Go take a peek at the beautiful moon tonight and know that it’ll be okay.
