(March 17, 1999)
Remembering is painful at times. It's easy to relive what did happen and what did not happen . . . and we try to take all the blame. We know what guilt is. Why didn't we do a better job, pay more attention, or follow a hunch? Few of us can look back and delight in memories of times past.
Would we have done things differently if we knew then what we know now? Maybe.
The best thing we can do for ourself is to forgive. Forgiving heals. It clears the way for time . . . time to build and love, renew and restore. It is a time of grace when we have done nothing to deserve it.
Peace,
Tawanka
P.S. Happy St. Patty's day!!!!!!

I like that one. I look back at mistakes and troubles had, though, and I don't have guilt for anything - just regrets. Regrets for so many bad choices, naive choices, choices made due to being a youth. Sigh...
