How could you do a thing like that? I thought you were my friend, I thought you were my friend...


i am with every stone i turn on this cobblestone path uncovering more and more errors
in the way i think and just exactly how deep some of it runs

cognitive errors
errors in thinking with roots that have woven themselves into the fabric of my personality
my very self

it is so scary to see these things
face them
and know that they have been a part of me for all my history

it is a frightening thing
so many of the stones I turn over have
Pandora's ugly bugs beneath them

  1. I think anyone, if they take the time, can
    look inside themselves and see that we are all imperfect and in need of healing. Part of that healing is forgiving yourself. It's not easy, but when you also realize that we are in part, a product of our environment...it becomes easier to forgive yourself.

  2. hi crackpot...i always get confused when i think about forgiving one's self. Does it mean forgiving one's self for being a human being? Or for not being perfect? What kinds of questions can I ask my self to help to define the goal of forgiving one's self?
