Feeling guilty won’t change the past. That’s true. But if you’ve done something wrong and you don’t feel guilt, something inside of you is even wronger. That’s a huge problem. You are either completely evil and don’t care about right or wrong OR mentally ill and don’t know what’s right or wrong.
If you know you did wrong, own up and ask forgiveness. Don’t be surprised if you get forgiveness right away. Don’t be surprised if you don’t get forgiven at all. Hey! You hurt them. They didn’t hurt you. Some people can get over pain and some people can’t. Deal with it!
Own up to your wrongs and ask for forgiveness anyway. From that point, make up your mind to not do it again and move forward. If you’re still living you have to go on living! What are you going to do? Whine and mope about it? Repair what you can. Make restitution where you can. Pay for wicked deeds. Justice is justice. But go on with your life and try to be a better person. It’s an achievable goal.

That is true , if commit something wrong and don’t mind it meaning no co9nscience to bother, that is fine,lol. Those affected will surely sigh and cry in despair for in the past he or she had let someone in pain.

Guilt can somwrim4s lead us to regret and promise not to do the same mistakes again.The past is the creator of the present for no one reaches the present without the past, meaning we were able to surpass all those obstacles that wanted to pull us down like sicknesses felt, sorrows, failures and pains. We have to be tankful for they past for those that are part of the life’s present time made us of what we are today.

@cely Past is past indeed. All we can do now if we have committed a mistake in the past is to learn from it.
However, if you have wronged people in the past, it will indeed forever bother you if you haven’t asked for forgiveness with a sincere heart. Ask for forgiveness, because if you don’t you be forever be haunted by the past.
If the person won’t forgive you because he/she is so hurt, then move on. At least, you have done your best to ask for forgiveness. Change your ways into better ones.
For the person who hasn’t forgiven you, show him /her that you have changed. Time heals all wounds as the saying goes. And that person will mellow when she/he sees you to have changed already into a better person.

@Dina, Yes true, we can never bring back the hands of time and gradually those mistakes subside and what is felt and seen only scar and memory of that unforgettable yesterday. Despite what, life is still beautiful to live if possible forever.

I don’t. When I ask that, it is to know if the person is really in good state or not. If not, I will be listening to whatever she would share about it.
I can empathize with people. I can also give advise should they want it.
I don’t actually say “how are you” to any person or friend. I choose to give them to people I truly know. With other people , I would just say a simple HI and smile.
-
If somebody who asks that question is not a close friend or relative, I will just answer, “I’m fine!” because I do not want to elaborate even if I am not fine. I should not tell them how I was doing because it is not proper to do so. But to ask such question is just alright.
