GUILT:


Feeling good about ourselves is a choice.
So is feeling guilty. When guilt is
legitimate, it acts as a warning light,
signaling that we’re off course. Then its
purpose is finished.

Wallowing in guilt allows others to control
us. It makes us feel not good enough. It
prevents us from setting boundaries and
taking other healthy action to care for
ourselves.

We may have learned to habitually feel
guilty as an instinctive reaction to life. Now
we know that we don’t have to feel guilty.
Even if we’ve done something that violates
a value, extended guilt does not solve the
problem; it prolongs the problem. So make
an amend. Change a behavior. Then let
guilt go.
