Mariam repented past failures.
Rabbi Jesus told her gently, "I forgive. It is your failures that make you great. Because they make you humble."
We are all sinners. We have all failed. Let us not be judgemental of the weakness and failings of others, while neglecting to take our own sinful natures into consideration.
Don't obsess about past sins. Repent, be forgiven through the sacrament of reconciliation, and move on. Just don't repeat that particular failure again. You know better now.
Bow your head before God's mercy, compassion and forgiveness. Bow your head in mercy, compassion and forgiveness to others.
And grow in meekness, inner silence and humility.
