Amen to all that you have so eloquently put here.

Philippians 3:12-14 :
12 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, FORGETTING THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEHIND and REACHING FORWARD TO THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE AHEAD, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Ha! Typical Bible College student, always quoting from the Word of God and all that. Whatever. I think you really hit on something that Christians forget all the time. People are always living in regret (myself from time to time) and then they try to push that guilt off on others. Stupid. I'm glad you've come to this realization as early as you have in life. It takes many folks a lifetime. Kudos!!!
