The guilt fairies reminded me.......

Letting Go of Guilt

Feeling good about ourselves is a choice.

So is feeling guilty.

When guilt is legitimate, it acts as a warning light, signaling that we're off course.
Then its purpose is finished.

Wallowing in guilt allows others to control us.
It makes us feel not good enough.
It prevents us from setting boundaries and taking other healthy action to care for ourselves.

We may have learned to habitually feel guilty as an instinctive reaction to life.
Now we know that we don't have to feel guilty.
Even if we've done something that violates a value, extended guilt does not solve the problem; it prolongs the problem.

So make an amend.
Change a behavior.
Then let guilt go.
