Guilt motivates. At least two lifetime Democrat voters for every abortion.
“I accepted responsibility and forgave myself.”
WTF? I guess the forgiveness of the murder victim doesn’t come into play...
Yeah, but you're a keeper.
Very sad, how people can lie to themselves and rationalize what they have done so they can escape from their pain and the guilt. Even sadder to keep their pain & guilt at bay they encourage others to choose abortion. They must pretending as hard as they can that abortion was a moral choice so that they may fool themselves as well. The pressure of that suppressed anguish demonstrated by the irrational vehemence and intransigence they exhibit.
The path toward healing and the moral choice is to instead accept that it was a horrible thing to do but also understand that people can be forgiven if they accept their guilt and try to atone by doing good and bearing witness.
Doing good deeds such as helping other women not make that terrible choice, telling them how you were affected and working to give them other options and the strength to make a better choice.
My oh my, there are just some pitiful women in this world. Not a good sign if we want a healthy society.

What a depraved soul.
I forgave myself...
She has forgotten, or never learned,
Who is the only person from which to ask forgiveness...
Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Stare as all human feelings die
We are leaving, you don’t need us

So she seared her conscience and God allowed her reprobate mind to function clearly for all to see.
She is inexcusable before the truth of which she will be judged.
That child lives still, loved and with a name given by God.
God is loving and will cloth in His righteousness all who will turn in faith to Jesus.
It is all sin which separates us from the love of God unless we repent and look on His Son for Salvation.
Reconciliation is a vital step in healing. When one’s own actions cause grief and guilt there are 2 roads to reconciliation with oneself.
Forgiving oneself is a process of rationalization to justify the action and move on with a life twisted by an acceptance of sin.
By accepting Christ’s forgiveness the burden of sin is removed and the believer is given a new life in Him.
The one road leads to a life twisted and gnarled by sin. The other leads to the joy of salvation.
Choose which path you will travel.
A person’s soul always knows right from wrong, even when a person ignores the souls advice.
In the 70's I had 2 women friends who sought out my emotional support after their abortions.
They were liberal atheists and found no judgement from me. They were very open about their remorse and continual reliving the procedure. It had nothing to do with external pressure or any social stigma. It was very internal and personal.
The takeaway from her account is that she had a conscience, and she had intense guilt over her abortion. Instead of repenting and asking God to forgive her, she seared her conscience and forgave herself. Now that she’s free of a conscience, she can convince other women to murder their babies as well.
