I have to make it work

"I think I hold so much anger, grief and love. I don't know where to place it. I think I tried holding it all so tightly it slipped through my fingers. I tried giving the love away but all I was left with anger in my gut and my grief surrounding me. giving anger to others never worked, the words were never right. they just didn't get it. my grief was stuck to me like glue. no matter how much I gave away, more always came. So now I'm suck with the anger, the grief and the love. And I still don't have a place for them. So maybe I can make something new.

- Hope"

There are bad things all of us have done that we didn’t have to do. No one forced our hand, we were in no danger or duress. Yet we did something we knew was wrong. Regret over this is healthy, but practice healing your shame. You did something bad, but now is your chance to spend every day doing good things just because. If you let your shame consume you, all you will accomplish is paralyzing yourself in guilt. This will not heal anyone. You deserve forgiveness and peace.
