Mistakes... we've all made em
Mistakes are one of those givens in life: we humans make them all the time. Sometimes, what we are told is a mistake, is actually the best choice we have ever made! More on that later; let's discuss what mistakes look like first.
Mistakes have relatives
- Mistakes usually have relatives, little cling-on-consequences that make your life hellish and unbearable at times
- Mistakes like company, and tend toward patterns, as in, you keep repeating the same words and actions that cause you some trauma, and more than a little drama too
In other words, mistakes are choices you and I have made, that can be pointed at as the beginning point for the unfortunate circumstances we may now have to live with... but not forever
I mentioned above that sometimes what others perceive as a mistake may have been the best choice you or I have ever made. There is room, after we say or do something that probably was detrimental at the time, to turn a situation around, and have the lesson learned in the suffering, become a foundational pillar we stand on to become more purposeful in our work and intimate relationships.
Yours,
