I am racked with the guilt and the pain of I should,
and I ought, and I can't, but I must.

but I don't have a ME that I trust.

with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.

- Theodore Roosevelt

but one must take it BECAUSE it is right.

You are not your mind. You, a Spiritual BEing,
are neither your mind nor your body.
Mind and body are your tools - to use as you choose.
Sometimes your body appears to have a will of its own,
as when it twitches or pains.
Likewise, your mind often appears to have its own will.
That incessant chattering of regret, disappointment, guilt,
shame, foreboding, worry, and fear
is your Rattlesnake Mind striking off on its own.
