Drowning in Shame vs Using Shame

in #psychology6 years ago

When we do something that makes us ashamed of ourselves, we will often lose a part of ourselves in that shame. We punish ourselves by replaying the event in our mind over and over, telling ourselves that we deserve to feel this shame and we DO NOT deserve forgiveness. The truth is that forgiveness is really the key to taking responsibility for our actions, and creating real change that will ensure that we do not repeat our mistakes of the past.
