...i just make some bad decisions. what is family when if you do something wrong, they turn their backs on you, instead of meeting you halfway somehow? i will find no room for improvement in myself if i can't forgive myself. i may make bad decisions, but i respect myself and want to have a good life when it's completely mine. i'm human, and if my family loses patience for me and believes i deserve nothing that i actually receive, it wont be possible for me to win respect and trust back if i'm not on my own side. i make bad decisions, and there should be room for mistakes to be made. it's not who i am that is getting me in trouble, because i'm not soulless or ungracious. i never mean to take advantage of anyone. i am disappointed in myself, but i can't beat myself up forever. i just want to be happy in my own non-self-destructive ways. i'm anticipating more "lectures" from people in my family, a lot of them proving how i am a terrible person, but i have to be strong inside and know it's really not who i am.

Random comment from un-connected soul - a bit of meditation on this will see you through and past. It's amazing how much guilt can follow you through your life because some people instilled it in you. The thing to realize though is that it's not truly yours, you don't have to own it, you know it's not right, not right for you and not right for anyone. The bottom line is that you find yourself feeling guilty about this, that or something else because you know it's something that let's other people down in some way. No matter how much we tell ourselves and those around us "I don't care what other people think, I'm me, I'm doing it my way..." it's just not really true. We do care what other people think and we care how our actions affect other people, but think about that and see that it comes from one of two places, fear or love. Out of fear of reprisal or fear of punishment we react, but likewise, in love we react to other's feelings, things we know about how they will react, how they might be disappointed.
Getting past it - get centered in what you think, what you believe because when push comes to shove and you need someone to pull you through the ultimate truth is --- it's just you. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one.
Keep it real, do good things, think good thoughts, love much.
