Drop guilt! -- because to be guilty is to live in hell. Not being guilty, you will have the freshness of dewdrops in the early morning sun, you will have the freshness of lotus petals in the lake, you will have the freshness of the stars in the night. Once guilt disappears you will have a totally different kind of life, luminous and radiant. You will have a dance to your feet and your heart will be singing a thousand and one songs.(quote by Osho)
So, why am writing about guilt? Well, I know one too many people that I care about consume themselves so deep into guilt feeling that they feel trapped. And this becomes a snowball reaction to all other actions that the person(s) do next. Am also referring this to some family members and couple of close friends.
Thus, stop feeling guilty. If a decision has been made and you feel bad about it, go take a nice bath, sleep or just do some activity that takes your mind of the guilt feeling because guilt can be cancerous!
All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame them, it will not change you. The only thing blame does is to keep the focus off you when you are looking for external reasons to explain your unhappiness or frustration. You may succeed in making another feel guilty about something by blaming them, but you won't succeed in changing whatever it is about you that is making you unhappy.
