Oh, wow, man. What a deep thought! So feeling sorry for yourself is the first step. Far out.

Cool theology. New age. No self-esteem-robbing guilt involved. In my backward theology, you have to ask forgiveness from God or from those you've trespassed against. I think I'm switching to this new do-it-yourself model.
Good luck with that!
