I've found in my experiences that most people are more willing to forgive and forget in real life than what we think in our heads.. If they truly care about and love us, they want to see us happy and thriving.. guilt can be a corrosive poison if you let it linger in your system for too long. Make it up to those people by getting back in the saddle and being the best you can be.. or at least being better than before (not all days will be perfect, right?)

Anyone not willing to forgive you after that is, unfortunately, not worth your time or effort.. I have found the steemit community to be helpful. Keep your chin up..

every passing moment is another chance to turn it all around.. -Vanilla Sky
