So many thoughtful and thought-provoking posts.
I'm overhwelmed. As a person who feels guilty for everything---global warming, the war in iraq, my younger siblings' dysfunction, the death of our planet, my mother's suffering---I think the person I most need to forgive is myself. According to my mother, I was born evil. I keep thinking if I can find a way to forgive myself, I can find a way to forgive others. Or is it the other way around? If I can learn to forgive others, can I learn to forgive myself?
It is a difficult and confusing topic. Thank you one and all for your contributioons to this discussion.
