(Network) awake from blood-thick dreams

I'm seeing a lot of people apologizing for what they did while we were in the city.

What if what you suddenly feel guilty about is older than that? If no one is here to apologize to?

Not real sure what exactly happened, this all is new and weird. But seems to me if you feel like you did something you did hurt people and you can't make amends to them then you do what you can to help others.

It ain't always about doing good for just one person, it's about the intention of doing good.

Where I am from, it is understood that sometimes one cannot apologize to those we may have wronged. The weight of such wrongs can weigh heavy upon us.

Guilt is one of the greatest weights we carry. But there are ways to offer the apologies, even if they cannot be properly accepted. I could teach you.

Some people in certain basements call those 'living amends'.

If you're not ready for that, though, you should check out the Deep End.

For Nightsisters, it is the decision of those we have wronged how we make penance for what we have done. For those outside the coven... if they have wronged us, then we make them pay.

Perhaps that is not helpful.

Shifts in perspective are hard. I guess the question is if this shift and the feelings that come along with it, is one you want to hold onto to.
