Does guilt or shame have any positive long term effects?
I totally believe (have read many books, have learned from many people) but if youl, for whatever reason, hold on to guilt for an extended period of time, way after the situation occured that you happen to feel guilty about, it will, how do I say, leave a huge burden on your soul, and this can lead to stress built up that is just so unnecessary. The same goes for shame. If you go out your life, more or not, holding on to feelings of shame and/or guilt, to put it skinny, you will not be a content or happy person.
