If you agree, what is this thing we feel guilty about?

The more ideas the Better,
So please if you feel you have something to say, please do write it down. Thanks.

Guilt is valid when we have done something wrong and need to apologize to another person. Like we stole something from them or wronged them.


When that is not the case and we still feel guilty then maybe it is time to shelve that emotion as it only serves to burden us for no reason. This is not true guilt at all. Just a masquerade of thorns and barbs that we torture ourselves with. Does everybody feel guilt? Some would but others dont. Self flagellation is not productive. Humans are not perfect. Never will be.
