[quote=Anonymous]I struggled with guilt and regret over mistakes I made as a young adult. My Dad told me something very powerful that really stuck with me. Not immediately but it was something that I came to understand over time. He told me you can’t change the past. There is no amount of guilt, shame, sadness, or regret that can change it. The only you can do is learn from your mistakes so it doesn’t happen again. Remember the saying: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. This truth has helped me overcome a lot of regret and what ifs in my life. Not saying it’s that easy but it’s the most powerful truth I needed to hear. My Dad shared it with me with love and acceptance and I never forgot it. Your daughter may need therapy or medication but this is ultimately the message she needs. Good luck! [/quote]
