Ouchy Thoughts
Do you ever say, or even THINK, something that you regret very deeply ... feel much remorse for?
I think one of these things I said, that I'll never forget, was "Wow, how cool would it be to ride out the hurricane in the SuperDome?!" Little did I know ... d:(
Another was on September 11 ... after the first plane crashed in to the WTC tower ... my housemate had his TV on and told me about it. I was grumbley and upset that he was talking to me so early in the morning. Mornings were MY time, he usually stayed in his room and left me alone to get ready for work. (He worked nights.) He stuck his head out of his room and told me about the plane flying in to the building, and I shrugged it off as flight control error, and really wished he'd leave me alone. (I'm not a morning person. *GRIN*)
Both times, my thoughts were directed so ... selfishly... at what turned out to be catastrophic global events. Remorse doesnt even begin to describe the suffocating feeling I have. It's very ouchy.

I don't think you can chastise yourself for stuff like that.
Otherwise you would never think like that and it is only natural.
I think the fact that you felt bad afterwards is sufficent to show that you really do care, once you know all the facts, and ultimately that matters.
