OK, slow up. I did say retrospection. I'm more or less looking back as opposed to looking inward (introspection). Remorse, eh, maybe it's a bit too strong a word. I'm not sitting around at work (which is where I posted from the first time) thinking "poor ol' me." I'm sitting around thinking, there are things I should have handled better, I need to work on a few things. The retrospection is how I attempt to identify things I feel I need to work on: it's my first step in retifying what I feel needs to be rectified. So at that particular moment, in my free time, I identified things I've done, or qualities about myself which bring about a feeling of remorse. Step 1. You are right in saying that feeling guilty serves no practical purpose, but only if I stop there.
One of the things I want to change is the nature of my posts here. I've picked fights for no other reason than to pick fights. I felt in my heart that in order to start an apology was in order, so that's what I did. It may not mean much but I feel it has set some things right in my universe.
