I'm pretty sure everyone's heard at some point that its alright to make mistakes every now and then. But I can't think of it that way. I mean, of course, I'm going to make mistakes along with the rest of the world. What I don't want is to pay for my mistakes for the rest of my life. How do you make things right after you screwed it up? These things just don't go away, you can't just forget about them. I don't want to be that person that says "Well its in the past, it doesn't matter now." because that may not be entirely true. I don't want to get older and think that I should have done something about a mistake I made and have it eat at me for years and years....That's the kind of person I am...I never forget about the people I've hurt and the people that have hurt me. And I know that it doesn't help me move on, but it does help me make better decisions about who I talk to, what I say, and how I say it. I guess right now, all I feel is guilt...

Sincerely,
Kat...
