“Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed.” James 5
Self-respect is born out of the responsibility we take for our own happiness. If I am unhappy I do not need to look any further than my own moods for the reason. It is silly to blame others or my circumstances for my unhappiness when I alone have the power to choose my attitude. Once I humbly accept the responsibility for my own disposition, come to grips with my own faults, admit them to myself, to God and to others when necessary, then I will be in a position to do something about being happy rather than sit and sulk that I am not.
