there are time when we were so 'lost', we did the unthinkable.. hurting someone's feelings, and then suddenly we feel regretful for what have been done.
then came the search for forgiveness. we started saying "forgive me" to those we hurt.. and somehow we felt not forgiven by them.. and sometime saying "forgive me" is kinda hard to do.. but our soul never feel satisfy even though they said "i forgive you".. so we repeat again until came to a level that make us begging for their forgiveness..
but the truth is, did we forgive ourselves? forgiven for ourselves mean like perentance. repentance is a change of thought and action to correct a wrong and gain forgiveness from a person who is wronged.
in my own view, to ask for forgiveness, we must first be honest to ourselves. secondly ask ourselves if we really feel regret. then we can ask for forgiveness. show them your sincerity. show them how really sorry you are for what you have done. but the most important thing not to expect them to fully forgave us because even we have asked for it, we never know how true their words of forgiveness. we will never know if they really honest to us. we may feel disappointment someday when we know that the person didn't really forgave us.
but, heck! this "forgives" issue is avoidable. keep it real, keep it cool. be honest to ourselves. remember what do we feel if other do some unforgiven things to us. that's just how they feel. reflect it to ourselves. NO BAD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED.
