How can I learn to forgive myself for my twisted past?

Have you ever heard of the serenity prayer? It goes like this...."accept the things you cannot change, change the things that you can and have the wisdom to know the difference." What is done, is done. You can make some of it right, by apologizing and letting the people know that you hurt that you regret it and love them today. Live the best you can and be the best example that you can be. Just accept the fact that it happened and there is nothing you can do to change the past and put everything you have into making the future positive. good question.
