It took fourty years, my siblings finally appologized for their wrong doings. However, they still went on doing it. I love them and will take it. What the heck, it makes them feel good?

Unfortunately, I was blamed for most of the things that went on while I was growing up, but you know what?  It doesn't matter any more.  None of my siblings have ever apologized for anything and really don't expect them to.  Maybe they are the reason  the elevator doesn't go all the way to the top of the shaft?  Who knows, maybe they forged my mind and soul to be the way I am today.

I live for myself and the people I love... Going through most of my life, I never felt love. Oh, I told plenty of people I loved them and of course they said it back. Though I did not feel it, it was like something alien to me... So I fell into a deep depression, barely eating, not talking to anyone, just sort of floating through my life with a glazed look on my face. Then my nephew was born and I ended up having to raise him for a year, myself. I finally felt that love for something other than myself, I loved my nephew so much that it opened the way for me to love others.\n\nGranted, I still don't feel that sort of love from my family but I now love three people. THREE PEOPLE, one of which I am trying to get involved with. So, I suppose I live for love really... As corny as that sounds. I want the chance to be able to love as many people as I can now, within reason. lol

Literally I think it means to excuse or to pardon ones mistake, but this was no mistake and you have every right to feel the way you do. Some people say they do it because it helps them to accept what happened, releases their anger and allows them to focus on healing. Others I think are more self serving in that they want to seem the better person in appearances and receive the praise that accompanies it all the while still harboring their grief and anger. The thing is that there is no right or wrong way to feel in these situations, but in time you do have to learn how to cope with it. You can't forget about it because it did happen and you are not required to forgive, but you can not let it be all consuming and ruin your happiness and peace of mind. Take Care and Be Happy.

You forgive people for your own sake as well as for theirs.  If you hang on to the anger and bitterness you might feel for someone who has wronged you, you are hurting yourself, and probably not hurting or affecting that other person at all.\n\nSo forgive because it is good for you.  Rise above needing the other person to feel remorse.  Forgive for yourself, for your own well being, and we will all be better for it.

Hurting some of the best people I have ever met. Its not a regret as such because I have learnt from it, but its still not nice to know that some one else has been upset by you for doing no wrong.

It pleases me to no end that you feel better after sharing your problems....and thank you for ignoring the ones who have nothing better to do than be cruel....good for you that you are so positive! WE ALL HAVE OUR SHARE OF PROBLEMS--but at least you and I find solutions!!! Thank you for being so kind!!!

I was told that acceptance of other people, things and yourself make you a happier person.  Do something that you genuinely love and helping other people in need are also helpful.

I want to be remered for the good I did. I know I probaly won't and I could care less. People wouldn't nessaccerly care. I still want to do some good for the world. If I'm remembered wonderful if not so what I could care less I'll be dead. I just want my actions to be contiued if I do something good which I hope I do.

Thank you for this question.....it honestly made my day. To know that somebody, somewhere , in another part of the world loves me, is a real morale booster. I don't hate you though, it's just good to know that somebody cares. I hope you have a wonderful, love-filled day yourself.

Some people get a lot of joy and peasure in helping others, and it's real admirable, and i gotta love them for it.\n\nBut i am selfish. I am happy doing what I wanna do, i don't wanna follow some moron's vision of happiness, i wanna be me all the time. I dont give two hoots what anyone thinks or wants if it doesnt fall in my view. I can compromise, but i don't often, why should i make myself unhappy?

Right now, I feel pretty good about myself. I'm doing something wonderful and positive with my life and I've never been happier. It took me a long time to re-gain my self esteem, but now I'm stronger and happier than ever.

This might sound really stupid, but I used to and still do a little feel the way you do. When I was seeking help about it, I was told to write my little disappointments or things I regretted on some paper, wad up the paper, and throw it away. It's like I needed that visual to realize that the past is the past, there isn't anything I can do about it except maybe learn from it and do better next time around. What good it is doing you just sitting around nursing these things ya know? Make up for it however you can.

I have never been guilted into doing right. I do right because it is worth it....I raised orthodox, but never felt guilted into anything.

i guess people learn from their mistakes, and most people don't like the feeling of guilt, so most people wont repeat what the sin                                                                          but to answer your question i guess the people who repeat their sin, really don't feel the guilt they should be feeling and that causes them to do it again.i would need to know more in order to answer the question with more detail.

I am trying to be a better person.  Also, I am looking to make a difference in the world by teaching children~I want to be remembered as someone who was nice, loved everyone and who was well liked by people around me.  Currently, I am trying to start a family with my wonderful husband.

You felt guilt because your heart told you were doing something(s) wrong.  Telling lies is definitely wrong. Your sister could not watch how you were dancing because she felt it was wrong.  Two wrongs don't make a "right".  Making good decisons when you are young, can only increase your ratio for success as you grow older.  Do the right thing!  It feels much better and has no negative consequences!  Only good can from responsible choices made correctly.
