It's silly, but I feel bad for the umbrella I stole when I was 6. I stole it at school, because my parents wouldn't give me one, and I thought they were fun to play with. But I felt guilty, I told my mom, and she told me what to do about it. Next day, I go in, I apologize, and tell the kid whose umbrella it was that I stole it. But he said: "No, that's okay, my mom gave me another one." But I don't like being told something like that. It left me shocked and sad. I still had the umbrella, and he wouldn't accept it back. So that's pretty much why I still feel kind of guilty for that. He never accepted it back.

No. I usually try to avoid committing mistakes as others do and I usually don't do mistakes by god's grace. But even if I commit mistakes, I feel guilty just for few hours. Later, I'll just move towards a lonely place, sit, take a deep breathe, close my eyes and think. I'll understand the lesson that life have taught me from that mistake. I'll take that lesson to my heart and use it in my life. This makes me avoid committing mistakes. So, forget the past. But don't forget the lessons of past. Take those lessons towards present and brighten your future!
