shame shame double shame
I obessess over things. I go over them through my head over and over and over. Guilt is something that I have to look out for because if I'm not careful I can let it consume me.
There are things that still pop into my head that happened ages ago that I shouldn't still feel guilty over. Things that no one probably remembers. Times I was rude or insenstive. Times I was out of character. Times I was snobby.
I'm a nice girl. I really am. So I end up obessessing and feeling guilty about things that other people might brush off.
I'm way better than I used to be. In highschool, if something stressful or bad happened, it was all I could think about. All I could talk about.
Now?...I don't know...I'm better than I was.
There is something liberating about talking about your own flaws.
