I can remember my short comings and feelings of guilt about certain things from way back when...probably things no one but me noticed. Prayer helps me to feel better and usually helps me prioritize and put things in perspective.

I feel guilty that I am a little peeved that she is still trying to run things after she has been released. I feel guilty that I am not in a position to follow up on the proposal. And I feel guilty about trying to indicate gently to her that I would prefer she not copy the entire stake before I see the document.<br />Ouch!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6370146097119823233.post-8012132630719830742009-04-30T10:04:00.000-07:002009-04-30T10:04:00.000-07:00Mine too!

I refuse to be manipulated!<br /><br />I think feeling inappropriate guilt is striving for perfection that is just not there. And if we don't come to accept our inperfection, and other's, we will not be healthy. Trust me on this...you will be a little nutty! ;) Fogive yourself and everyone else. Guilt feelings, it seems to me, is living by everyone else's expectations. It's not all bad... how I feel about myself also lets me know that I am a bit harsh with others and what I expect from them. That's why I say forgive everyone! <br /><br />"Men are that they might have joy"<br />YOU are in charge of your joy.
