I stepped on an ant...

...deliberately, and I still feel bad!  It was a couple of weeks ago, I was in my uncle's office chatting away to the guys there when I saw this wee ant crawl across the floor.  Before I even put my brain into gear I had splatted it with my shoe.  Why??  I've no explanation, but I do feel bad.  The ant wasn't causing me any harm nor did I detect any imminent threat to either my safety or those around me (surprisingly).

The thing is that I genuinely still feel bad for doing it.  If it had been an accident then fair enough, but I actually went out of my way to kill the ant.  What I'm now stuck with is ~ what to do next?  I'd quite like this feeling of guilt to be removed from my conscience as I'm now finding it rather bothersome...so if anyone has any suggestions, please do get in touch!
