Don't kill yourself

Not much here is meant literally as one thing I say a lot is how words fail at truth but can be used to point.

Do you carry an old haunting memory, a real cringer than pops up from childhood days or some embarrassing act? Does it pop up and have you wince? What I aim by the next story is to demonstrate why you should throw it out.

 

One person is lead to kill and they act and move on, take nothing with them from the deed and continue as if nothing had happened.

Another person kills out of anger and is caught, tried and jailed. Each hour of each day in prison they curse the policeman, the judge, the jury, themselves, the family of the dead. Come the day they are released, they are still a murderer.

 

Take the story to point to how people punish themselves and not a literal story about killing. If you can empty to the act you did so long ago, it was probably not murder, then you can empty of the past and be full of now.

An act is only carried with you if you carry it.
