Following an order which ended up hurting someone very badly, even though I was just doing my "job." I should have refused to do it, but was afraid to say no.

YES , sometimes when we do something that is wrong we may not realise at the time and by the time the fact comes to light it is too late to put things right. I was impatient and unkind to somebody this week and now they have died I can never make reparation

Yes. I've done some things I'm not proud of, but cannot undo. Some of these I have tried to "make amends" with, others I haven't been able to yet. The most important thing for me is to not dwell on the regret or remorse of my actions, but glean what lessons about me and my place in the world I can from them. I don't believe I could have possibly NOT made these, because then I would not be who I am today, but I am a firm believer in scrutinizing even the most painful ones to learn from. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. I believe this applies not just to populations as wholes, but also the individual.

I have a daughter with my first husband, who is not a good father. He lets her down constantly and even though he says the right things sometimes and goes through the motions, I am not sure that he is actually capable of loving another person. He terrifies me, so I rarely have stood up to him for anything. Unfortunately, now my daughter cannot stand up to him. I believe I have set a terrible example for her and it breaks my heart when I watch her struggle with these issues.

Yes I have my share and I wish that I could in some way make them right with that person(s). But the truth is that I can nevr take away the hurt that I caused even if that person has coped and moved on. I can only hope that there was forgiveness for me and to allow them to start healing. But I do not feel that they will never be righted, time has a way of healing you if you are truly sorry for the wrong doings.

I belive Jesus can make right out of all my wrongdoings and I have plenty of them. Luther wrote "Sin cannot tear you away from him [Christ], even though you commit adultery a hundred times a day and commit as many murders." Thanks be to God.

Yes. I stopped talking to the best ever female friend that I had because my girlfriend didn't like her. I miss her a lot but I made my choice and I feel I can't talk to her anymore. Months have passed and she still asks my friend that talks to her if I say anything about her. She tells him she misses me but I feel if I do try talking to her we'll never have the same relationship friendship wise. I love my girlfriend so much but she had a problem with this other girl. I suppose it would be the same for me if she was always talking to another guy and now that I look back on my decision I think there were other solutions. I could have reduced mine and her interaction instead of cutting it off all together.
