Day O3 → Something you have to forgive yourself for.

This one is tricky. I don't really know what I have to forgive myself for. I guess I still need to forgive myself for settling for 2.5 long years.. but at the same time, I am glad I did that or else I might have missed out on what I have now. I really believe that everything works out just how it should in the end, and I don't believe in skipping steps. Everything that I did got me to where I am right now, and I am very happy with life right now.

One thing though - once when I worked at a daycare, a child was crying and very upset and a co-worker told me to leave her and ignore her. This was a child that cried frequently, and I did what I was told, but it really bothered me. Later, my mom told me that this child hadn't been crying to be annoying, but she was crying because she was genuinely upset. And I just left her there alone. So now I try and be an advocate for kids that others want to ignore and give up on, and I try and give kids a chance when no one else will. But I still feel really bad for Delaney.
