Title: SHAME - a feeling or a state of being?
Post by: angelhome on May 08, 2011, 06:18:55 am: What causes shame? None of us are immune to shame. like cancer, it is just part of our society and to often we fail to recognize the symptoms. It is painful and often attaches who we are to what we do, what we have or how we look. When we are ashamed, we must seek within to ask what the root cause of our shame is? Do we feel we do not measure up? Meassure up to what? Someone else's perspective?
We were all created by GOD for a specific purpose and when we fully find what our purpose it, we will be happy.

Belief in God creates shame.

Everything we think is through a lens created by society. The only way you won't feel shame is to listen to yourself and not what you think others would tell you.
