Guilt and Forgiveness

I realize it will be years before my grand kids experience the pain of guilt and the sorrow of making mistakes that cause irreparable harm, but after a particularly bad week that is the topic that is on my mind.  I guess the only thing I really want to say right now is that no matter how bad you feel and how much you just want to hide from the world, letting your family in to share your grief and to give you an opportunity to unload the thoughts that burden you is so therapeutic and really does help to make things look brighter a lot faster.  Don't be too ashamed to share, because your family loves you too much to want to see you suffer alone.
