I look at the horizon from afar as the sun decides to take a rest from the day to let the moon take over the night shift. A cool breeze washes over me as i think of the far i have come in life. No one ever said that life will be just as easy as taking candy from a baby. You have to go through the ups and downs of this chaotic mess to pull through. You do know that we all make mistakes right! though some of us may make it seem that they are flawless.
No one is ever born perfect nor designed to have no flaws. I have heard some of my friends claim boldly that they can never fall for the desires of the flesh since they are holier than thou! I was like okay, if that is what you say. Later on they tumble & fall and their faces have guilt written all over. The best part is not to tell them,”I told you so” but to give them a hand and help them up.
We have all been there before, thinking we are stronger than the zebu bull going for the early morning bull-fight with the hopes of emerging as a victor. Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are; precious lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it is a fatal mistake, which, at least others can learn from. Mistakes are part of the dues that one pays to attain a full life on earth.
No should ever be ashamed to own his/her wrong, which is but saying …..that one is wiser today than he/she was yesterday. Making a mistake does not necessarily mean that you are one. One can never know what hurts unless they face a setback in life one time or another. To learn you get the lesson through making a mistake. You will never be successful if you do not taste failure, it is one’s attitude which makes one a fighter in the circumstances.
There is always another chance for you even though you have made a mistake, even a serious one. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down. When you make a mistake, do not look back for long. Calculate what needs to be done the look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom, without them we will not grow. The past can’t be changed but the future is still within the grasps of your power.
