A chance to forgive yourself

carefulWest6083 October 3rd

Share what you like to be forgiven and be glad to be alive.


I just read:

"Today all mistakes will be allowed and forgiven. Today is a day for being glad to be alive."


Let's try to forgive our mistakes and be glad to be alive.

@carefulWest6083 Today I want to forgive myself for what happened with my cousin when we were small. I forgive myself for being rude to my mom, I forgive myself for leaving people who loved me. I forgive myself for doing stupid things when I was small, not studying enough and ruining my reputation and everything I’ve ever done to anyone, even the part where I didn't express enough of my love to my previous cat although I truly loved him, he was so sweet. I’m trying to be better and the past is in the past. It’s okay. I forgive myself and I hope everyone forgives themselves for everything that keeps them up at night.

for use we seem to take on things that were not our fault  and not ours to carry. we been working on a skill we learned a long time ago that help us see what we blaming self for that was not our fault. so trying to place blame were it to be placed and not take on others peoples  wrong doing. so to forgive self for not seeing truth about things done to us. so also forgive self for blaming self for things we was not at fault for

we be grateful for the blessing of places like 7 cups and this place were we safe.

I would like to be forgiven for not being so patient and kind when my ex and i were near the breakup. I would also like to be forgiven for all the unkind things i have ever said to him. Also the unkind things i said to my mother and my sisters.

The one regret I have that I want to be forgiven for is when one of my dogs died a few months ago. I took a half day off work to be with him and snuggled him and gave him treats because I thought it might be the end from the signs he was giving but then later he acted like he was ok and ran around a little bit. So I went inside for the night cause I was tired and I took one more look at him before going in and I could tell he was sad and I convinced myself that he just wanted to play more but deep down I knew he wanted me there with him and I thought that he would be ok until the next day or two at least and then the next morning I found him under the porch. I hate that I didn’t just stay outside with him for the night.
