2. Protect from guilt and provide for peace. I once knew a man who had treated another worker unfairly. The unfair mad got along well in his work and continued to gain power and influence. The other worker worked hard, too, but no one ever praised him for it. But the unfair man was troubled by his own unfairness. He did not like to be around the man he had wronged. When he had to be near him, he would not look at him. That man was troubled by guilt and shame for what he did. The other man worked quietly and happily until he retired.
