Is it something to do with our hormones?
Or are beliefs?
Something else?
I really don't know.

I don't know, but spiritually, I think that guilt is one of the many obstacles we have to overcome.

Scientifically, though, I have no idea.

I feel guilty because......I couldn't save two people I was really close to back in May.

i think we're taught to feel guilty. many people use it in order to control us. that is my experience anyway. i think many of us who have an underfuctioning ego also overcompensate with an overactive superego which imposes guilt on us which isn't always appropriate.

i feel guilty cause it my fault he hits me. if i listened to him he would not hit me.
