I still feel awful for slapping my cousin once, how can I forgive myself?

Anonymous

It happened a couple months ago during an argument about abortion. I got sensitive, lost control and slapped my cousin Marcos.

I apologized immediately afterwards. I didn't excuse it because even if hurtful words were thrown, that was still wrong of me. I still feel bad though. That wasn't right. I never got bullied or hit by anyone in my life and yet I did the wrong.

I feel terrible though. No one deserves getting hit. No one. How can I forgive myself?
