Guilt

Guilt

Guilt burns holes in your heart & keep you up at night
It throws you off balance.

“Why did I?” you ask yourself countless times.

Guilt weighs heavy on your heart.
It makes you doubt yourself.
It makes you wish you could go back in time;
to change the decisions you made.

Only;
You can’t.

No amount of guilt can change the lessons meant for you;
Forgive yourself & move on.
Be strong.
