Hi hun is there a reason you need to be forgiven,for your feelings my dear,as long as your feelings are deep and real,if you feel the feelings are not the same with this person,then you must put yourself in deep thought,remmeber you have all the time in the world to be sure.hugs your friend carla7777...xxoo
I\'ve learned that for me to be accepted and forgiven, I must learn to forgive myself and be willing to make changes and following thru with them. To do that I had to learn to apply this prayer....
Lord, please grant me the Serenity to ACCEPT the things, I cannot change, the COURAGE to change the things I can, and the WISDOM to know the difference.
It\'s been an easier road to travel once I started to live one day at a time, enjoying on moment at a time and accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. To take this world as it is and NOT as I would have it. To admit I am powerless over people, places and things and to make a searching and fearless personal inventory of myself.
For others to accept me in my recovery process, I must first learn to be willing to make changes to better myself and learn to like me and love me. Until I do this, I will be in a constant struggle within, getting nowhere. Once I made room for change, following thru and took a personal inventory for which I made ammends, I learned to like and love myself and found others did too. My urges were extremely unhealthy caused many a flairup and tended to scare people away. It ran hand in hand with my behavior being selfish and self-centered and not thinking before hand of what damage my actions would cause by putting ME before anything else. Hope this gives you a different point of view to think about. Sending you prayers of strength and courage to move forward and not stay frozen and stagnent to the power of misery.
I agree with nibblet, well said. keep that in your thought process as you go about your day. And I, also take one day at a time, enjoy the moment don\'t let one go and pass you by unnoticed, for then it is lost forever. Take care. Jan

It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved, tied and true pure and simple! Cliche but it is true.
