Everyone has something they are ashamed of,
afraid of or that they feel guilty about.
Each of us in our own way will devise a neat
little method of handling it. Some of us
deny. Some of us blame. Some of us
do a combination of both. Undoubtedly the
day will come when we will be forced to examine
that which we have tucked away. We can
willingly begin the process of examination by
telling the truth to ourselves about ourselves.
We all have the right to make mistakes.
Our fault is being righteous about it.
When we fail to admit our faults, the faults
become what everyone can see. When we
refuse to admit what we have done in the past,
we block our path to the future. No matter
how terrible we think we are, how bad we believe
we have been, how low we think we have fallen,
we can clean our minds and begin again.
