diverting guilt
what a thing it is to be anything at all.
there exists a certain guilt associated with being a certain thing. A certain guilt that follows being a thing that you have no control over. or just the same a certain guilt that follows a certain thing but not for the reason you may be associated with that thing, just a guilt that should follow others who have been a certain thing.
in any case, when and how does guilt leave? even whence forgiven, it still exists in the back of minds guiding decisions. we put our heads down and our shoulders droop about it.
so i guess i take pride in other things.
i'm proud of my family and myself. I'm glad for the things I have done, mostly the ones that have taken patience and have not come with much credit.
i'm proud of my girlfriend and the person she is. there are a lot of things that make me stand tall.
they just may not be what the usual things are.
