" Guilt is an emotion, and just like any other it shouldn't be allowed to influence your actions. " - David Alan Bates

The Story

Ok, you guys may be thinking that, "yes, we shouldn't let guilt dominate our lives." "What is in the past is in the past, there is no point in hanging on to guilt."

Wrong.

What you shouldn't do is stop yourself from doing something just because you are afraid that you may feel guilty afterwards. Do what you need to and do what you want to, there is no room for guilt when you feel happy for yourself having done it.
