How to forgive yourself for hurting someone?

Sometimes we hurt someone because we protect us and sometimes we hurt someone because we are overwhelmed by feelings of angriness. When we look back to the events, when we're not in need of protection or angry feelings anymore, we start to feel guilty. We do not understand our actions anymore because we are in another state of mind then. But: We do out best in every situation. Sometimes our best is less than our best at another time. And sometimes our best contains hurting someone. When you are in a higher state of mind later, you can do your best then. You can apologize. And you can forgive yourself.

to err is human and to forgive is divine...you only grow bigger when you learn and forgive and stand up and move on.

Realize you were wrong, fix the damage and learn from your mistakes,

Apologise, make amends, and learn not to make the same mistakes. It's painful but tackle it 1 step at a time.

You can't. You can only wait until it goes away. If the person is still alive - apologise. If not - you can only send your thoughts.

If I hurt someone, the guilt eats at me. But I know to forgive myself, first I must acknowledge that I caused this hurt and apologise for it. After that I try to let go of the guilt and forgive myself.

By accepting that you hurt someone and that you can't change the fact that it happened. The first step is always acknowledgment.

Accept the fact that you did and promise to do better next time. Learn from your mistakes and get up. We all make mistakes, don't be afraid to pick yourself up and keep walking.

We all make mistakes. The best thing to do is move on,forgive yourself and not to make that mistake again

We have to learn from our mistakes and have to make sure to never repeat the same mistake again. Instead, we have to give compassionate towards others.
