I Feel So Ashamed Of Myself And Some Of My Past Actions -sarah by inspirationsity: 12:07am On May 22, 2017 |
Sarah: I feel so ashamed of myself and some of my past actions Wisdom: Why? Sarah: I’ve done a lot of things and been through a lot of things in my past. Right now, I am so full of guilt Wisdom: Have you asked God for forgiveness? Sarah: Yes, I have. However, I still feel unworthy and not proud of myself because of the people my actions have negatively affected Wisdom: Have you asked these people for forgiveness? Sarah: Yes, I have. Yet, I can’t look them in the face because of the memories of my actions Wisdom: Sarah, don’t you think it’s time you forgive yourself and pick yourself up once again? Sarah: Forgive myself? You know that’s a difficult thing to do. I’ve tried forgiving myself but I still feel I can’t keep living with the guilt and shame Wisdom: Do you know that difficulties with self-forgiveness have been linked with suicide attempt, eating disorder, and alcohol abuse, among other problems? Sarah: Really? So, how is self-forgiveness going to make me erase my past missteps? Wisdom: Forgiving yourself will not make you erase your past mistakes, but it will help you take responsibility for making the future more better than the past Sarah: You know sometimes it’s easier said than done. I’ve tried forgetting these events and yet, it still lingers in my mind and wouldn’t let me focus on what I should do and become Wisdom: Of course, it’s not going to be an easy thing to do but you should realize that forgiving yourself is not about forgetting the events of the past, it’s about not bringing the offence up to yourself in a negative way Sarah: What if others try to bring it up against me? Wisdom: Sarah, the reality is that you cannot change what has happened and you do not have much influence on how others will treat you, however, you can choose to make a difference in the lives of people around you. Sarah: Don’t you think it’s too late and I can’t really make a difference anymore? What if God decides to punish me in the future? Wisdom: Don’t you think it’s time you see God as your Heavenly Father and rely on the scriptures that says: “As a father is kind to his children, so the Lord is kind to those who honour him” “He does not punish us as we deserve or repay us according to our sins and wrongs?”. Sarah: So, what would you suggest I do now? Wisdom: It will be rewarding if you start thinking, talking and acting on what you can do to be a blessing to everyone around you. Your life holds a matchless purpose and it is highly significance, you too can add great value to humanity. Sarah: Thanks wisdom. I choose to forgive myself, pick myself up and bring out the best of me to make life less difficult for others. Wisdom: That’s a great attitude. I will leave you with the following positive self-talk. Keep saying it to yourself out loud daily, until your heart fully believes it, and then begin to take steps that will make you radiate confidence, courage and wellbeing: Sarah: I forgive myself I chose to realize, I am like a blade of grass here today and gone tomorrow. I am like a vapor, here today and then gone. Therefore, I choose to stop beating myself up for past mistakes and missteps. My past circumstances cannot abort future opportunities. I choose to be all that I was intended and predestined to be, for my creator, myself and for humanity. To forgive is divine. I choose to believe, I do not have to stoop over just because some aspects of my life haven’t been working so well. I choose to forgive myself for any perceived failure, stand tall once again, and reclaim my sense of human dignity. I choose to dedicate my life to the greatest good of all, and release my potential to make the world a better place. I forgive myself What are you grateful?

dangotesmummy: Lol, have you never taken part in a carnaval parade (or fancy dress/costume party?)..... It's all part of the action, and this was just me waiting to be suited after make up was done. BTW there is a huge part of the Rio carnaval's origin that comes from African orishas.... So, yeah there is definitely something spiritual going on here.. Lol! |
