How easy is it for you to forgive yourself?

Question

After doing something terrible/mean/evil etc.

Sun, Moon, and Risings?

Answer 1

Depends on the severity of what I did and how much it cost the people around me. Doesn't matter what it cost me.

The most common is until the hurt party forgives me, only then can I consider forgiving myself. I don't become overly-apologetic, though. I say sorry once. I just try to make it up to the person almost to the point that she goes "You can stop with the poems now!!!" LMAO!!!

...

But that's on a good day. Having the memory of a Virgo Moon can be like clenching a rose.

Edit: What do you think of my avatar? I think the Nickelodeon logo goes well with the badge. Check out Emmie's question. I still can't believe what that stupid website in her Q said...

Answer 2

It's hard! But I guess we do things without thinking of the consequences&then learn from our mistakes.

Answer 3

People like you really disgust me and most of the population......if you don't forgive yourself whatever.....who cares...is that supposed to make me feel an ounce of sympathy for you or something???....okay, maybe sometimes....but, do you think being hard on yoursself is actually productive??.....no it's just a way to kill time and deal with things like the wuss you are.....if you really feel bad about doing something, I believe a person should change for the better, or just stop doing it, and not sit around, instead, punishing themselves (out of the misapprehension that you are doing something heroic/noble).....

Answer 4

i cut my self (kidding)

usually i just drop the shot and pound a case of MGD

Answer 5

If it's forgiving myself for what I did to someone else, it's easy because either way I'm a good person. Unless I did something terrible then it takes time. It annoys me when other people feel guilty all the time because I don't understand it. I think it's just a lack of self-control because you don't have to keep doing mean things if you had control of a situation.

Answer 6

Very easy, I have no conscience. : )

Well...Seriously, it's not that I don't care, but it's just that I cut myself a lot of slack. I have made mistakes, and I have felt bad about them, but I know that I am only human. I do my best not to make those mistakes in the future. There's no point in moping about over it.

Answer 7

yeah it usually takes me along time to forgive myself about something and i talk down to myself whenever i s***w up big or small :-/.

Answer 8

I don't know abot evil.....lol...

terrible, mean, wrong, imperfect...blah, blah, blah....whatever....yeah!

I am my own victim of guilt...I can feel guilty about doing the right things as well...lol...Very rarely I feel that my decisions or actions are up to par...and then feel guilty - if I let it! I used to be that way - miserable all of the time, even when I was doing really well....that's what happens when you listen to others instead of yourself! I still feel that way from time to time but not so much like I used to! TG!

I still feel...alot...lol..and I do feel badly - even for other peoples misdeeds...kind of hard for me not to - I seem to be very empathetic....I even feel badly about others lives that have nothing to do with me except we live in the same world....like 3rd world countries, homeless people, neglected/abused children and so on....I have a pretty comfortable and decent life for the most pat and feel badly for those who don't and/or can't enjoy something at least simliar.....

yeah - I'm a softy at heart!

Sun - Sag

Moon - Scorpio

Rising - Cap

Answer 9

I would say pretty easy, I forgive myself easily, no need to chew on guilt for too long, it must be very exhausting and detrimental.

But I dont forget easily though.

Edit : Ms Loves you, Pms-ing are you ? that was uncalled for. Jezz, was just a question and she didnt ask for your " heroic/noble " sympathy. Get a grip.

Answer 10

I wouldn't forgive myself. I wouldn't know how to....

I never really did anything Terrible/Mean/Evil. I'm a calm nice guy! I won't do anything terrible

Aries Sun. Aries Moon. Virgo Rising

Answer 11

I don't think I've ever done anything really that terrible to have it on my conscience for long. I've regretted a few things and dwelt on it for a while, but I don't find it hard to forgive myself. It's just hard to forget, and that's probably a good thing because it helps me learn from mistakes.

Pisces Sun, Taurus Moon, Gemini Rising.

Answer 12

I can't forgive myself for anything terrible that I do on purpose.  Ever.  Even after a wronged party has forgiven me.  It can hurt me less over time though.   I can also learn from it.  But I never never forget.

You must remember the bad parts of yourself, otherwise you cannot grow and be your best.  Ignorance is terrible and ignorance of yourself is the worst of all.

Scorpio sun, Pisces moon, Aquarius rising.

Answer 13

Oh I can forgive easily by a sweet Whisper LOL....Um, I rarely , if ever, do anything terrible except to myself , not to others. I like everybody to be my friend and if I slip, darn, I would ask forgiveness.

Answer 14

It's hard to forgive myself when I know that I'm wrong but I try to improve and learn from it.

Forgive yourself  

Self-forgiveness carries a powerful energy that can completely transform your being and your life. Forgiving yourself is all about clearing away the weight of your past that you have been carrying inside your heart. When your heart is liberated, it creates a space for you to receive love again. As forgiveness floods your being, you will naturally feel more joyful, peaceful and empowered to manifest what you truly desire. The more deeply you forgive yourself, the lighter and higher your vibration will grow, and the easier it will be to manifest anything your imagination can dream. "To forgive is the highest, most beautiful form of love. In return, you will receive untold peace and happiness." ~ Robert Muller Forgiving yourself is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give yourself.  When you forgive yourself for something you have done, or regretted doing in the past, you're sending a warm blanket of gentle love all throughout your being.  You're letting in an all encompassing healing energy that takes you over completely.  You are loving yourself unconditionally, even though you may have done something that your ego judges as wrong.  The truth is that whenever you are striving to be that perfect being, it just implies that you're not there yet.  Your true essence is already Divine.  You already are a child of the God-Source, and will always be that.  Everything you have done in the past has been guided by this Infinite Divine presence that you are.  So you are perfection itself, which requires no effort to maintain at all.  Therefore forgiving yourself is simply honouring the Divine Being that you are now, and accepting every part of you that appears to be unlovable. "There is only one species of forgiveness... self-forgiveness."

Love & Blessings
