Guilt serves no purpose. The past is just that: passed! Gone. Slipped away. Not to be repeated. If you need to make restitution, then do it. If you messed up, apologize. If you are forgiven for your mistake, give thanks and move on. If you are not forgiven, move on anyway. Forgive yourself, learn from the experience, and act differently next time. At that point, it's over. Don't bother with guilt.

I love the quote. Really did. Then I saw his damn cowboy shirts and I went back to wallow in all my guilt. If I ever became a motivational speaker my trademark would be wearing a bolo tie at all my events. Maybe everywhere. E.
