Self Judgment

Nothing is ever accomplished by self judgment. You can't "correct" the situation or change the past by condemning yourself. Self judgment takes you down a negative spiral where you cannot make proper amends and right decisions. If you have hurt someone, beating yourself up does not help them. When you make a mistake and you feel guilty, let the guilt and self judgment go. When you start first with compassion on yourself, you can have compassion on others, and you can stay in that God space where He can give you the answers as to what direction you need to go. How do you have compassion on yourself in this situation? First, know that everyone at some time has self judgment and guilt over experiences they would choose to do differently the next time. Second, remember that compassion is the foundation of Love, and you are Love, for you are One with Him.
