forgiveness ain't nothing but a lifeless tire on the shoulder of her soul that never rolled

a quote from the song guinevere by the eli young band.  forgiveness.  that's a funny word.  i was going to post about spirituality today but i'm not feeling it now.  its about forgiveness.  forgiving others i guess is the easy part.  its forgiving yourself that is hard.  how do you forgive yourself for mistakes you've made years ago that are just now rearing their ugly heads.  how do you forgive yourself for losing the one you love.  for losing a friendship.  for not being observant.  for being self-absorbed.  for, well, everything.
those are the questions i struggle with tonight as i lay my head down.  i want to be content.  i really do.  but its hard to be content when you can't  forgive yourself.  what if i never forgive myself??????????
