Self-Condemnation

To regret is to fall back in misery, but to forgive yourself is to be free…

Good Morning Fin. Absolutely the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Your words say a mouthful. Regret and Forgive are such big words.... (smile) Have a beautiful morning and weekend. Thank you for sharing with us. Blessings always (smile)

A truism worth bearing in mind, Fin. A great reminder to all.

A very good philosophy, Fin, And to acknowledge and accept both your strengths and weaknesses allows you to continue living.

Forgiveness is, indeed, the key. Nicely put, Fin!

Thank you, Gershon :)

There are always reasons why, Fin, and as you say, there is always two or more ways out. And you have the answer to that my friend. Harry

Sometimes a lady overloads herself. Thank you, Harry, I always appreciate your comments. Always :) Fin

I suppose there’s another way of looking at this Fin, it’s probably easier to forgive oneself if one got away with whatever one done, but I’m sure that’s not your message here! Go easy on yourself, I agree, Cheers David

True, I need to care more for my self. I appreciate your great comment. Thank you, David :)

Wisely said, Fin. Regrets can bring a lot of misery. Past decisions cannot be changed, but we can learn from them, and some can also be remedied. ~ Regards // paul

February 26, 2023 at 7:37 PM

That’s for sure. Thanks, Paul :)

Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love. 2 John 1:3 NIV ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ Acts 17:28 NIV Amen, that's why Christ came to create within a new living being to be set free of these chains to this world, keep moving forward not listening to the misery you have been set free of : )

February 25, 2023 at 6:37 PM

Thank you, Stephan :)

February 24, 2023 at 9:44 PM

Indeed... Forgive yourself for not accepting yourself completely.

Wisdom shouts here.

Thank you, Pashang

Words of wisdom Fin and so true, bearing grudges weighs you down. Its a burden you don't need. Tom

February 24, 2023 at 1:19 PM

Thank you kindly sir :)

February 24, 2023 at 6:07 AM

You make amends and move on--well said, Fin. A powerful message.

February 24, 2023 at 6:31 AM

It would be so much easy to just learn and move on. Only i dwell too much. Lol. Thank you so much, Vijay. Always a smile seeing your visit :)

You are very wise, and I love your Spirit, so glad you are here on soup, I really enjoy your poems, please keep writing and don't let anything stop you from succeeding, you are worthy, and you are loved, by the one that molded you out of clay and affection, have the greatest day dear Fin :)

February 24, 2023 at 6:29 AM

Aw, Mystic, you’re a doll, and I’m so much fat from being wise. I think I’ve made so much mistakes in my days that are coming back and haunting me. I’m trying though to move on. Thank you, dear :)

Perhaps a combination of both would help.

Some of my regrets are what keeps me awake. Thank you, Vic, for coming by. Always appreciate it :)
