Guilt Games
This morning I felt really miserable and guilty about my need to call work and make the decision that I did. As the day has progressed, I have felt enormously relieved.
And yet I keep finding myself thinking about it and almost intentionally reminding myself to feel guilty. It's like I don't feel alright about the fact that I've inconvenienced others unless I make myself suffer.
But feeling guilt, doesn't fix anything for anybody. The best thing I can do is be grateful and try to pay them all back in some way.
