When you have made what you consider a mistake, you apologize and ask
for forgiveness.  The human has a
tendency to overdo this process, apologizing over and over and reliving the
action which led to the perception of a mistake.  As spirit there are no mistakes, only growth
opportunities.  What have you learned
from this opportunity?  Do you now
realize you might have made a higher choice? 
Are you committed to making a higher choice should the opportunity arise
again?  Then you have most definitely
learned and growth of the soul has occurred. 
In this case, there is no need to apologize to Spirit.  And yet in your prayers so many of you ask
for forgiveness over and over again.  If
you feel an apology is worthwhile … if asking for forgiveness of Spirit helps
you to see a higher choice … then do so, but there is no need to do so
repeatedly.  Move on, my friend, and
continue growing in love.  That is all
that matters.
