There's something about our anger and sadness...the guilt and shame in us....reminds us that we have any character at all. Most souls don't ever intend to hurt anyone. It's not usually in our nature. I know a large part of you is that way, not wanting to hurt anyone. Least of which yourself. It's easy to look down on ourselves though. To get lost in our problems and get eaten up. To get angry and sad until we just can't take it anymore.
It's difficult to forgive ourselves sometimes for who we are and what we have done. But it's okay to have mercy on yourself and see that things can change, and that you can change. Even if you're not sure right now or for a bit.
It's easy to let that guilt become the whole thing and make us feel worse. But we don't get better that way. We don't redeem ourselves through punishment, and punishment alone. We redeem us through remembering what we've done, and trying to grow stronger because of it. For recognizing the judge we look into the eyes of is us, and our true penance begins when we look to integrate, not separate.
It's okay to cry sometimes, man. You're feeling something very powerful like you always have. Just don't let those tears become everything. Don't let that pain become everything. You're too good a person to be dragged back down.

Here, together man. It doesn't feel good some days, these feelings. That's why I put them to use and make a bridge to souls like you instead of making a torch. It's all a process but we have each other in the end, even if it's in passing. These feelings are a part of us, and they may break us, but they do not make us. Hang in there still. You have a home here.
If you can recognize yourself, it means you are aware. If you're aware, then there is always hope for you. Doubles when you know you're not alone with any of this. Life and all its conditions continuously change, and our bonds to what heals us can grow stronger with that change. :)
People are quick to falling into that shadow. I've been in it many a time. The strength it takes to not only keep out of it, but to be better, be someone you want to be is a whole other level. It also takes a lot to be this personal with the public as you are. Thanks for sharing your inner thoughts.
