Thanks dear one! What I have learned for myself is to forgive myself for my mistakes, especially when I was doing my best to get it right and made it wrong instead.
Where I come from there is an old saying…”If you don’t learn from your mistakes, you are certain to keep on repeating them until you do!’
I have also learned that when I take responsibility honestly for my mistakes, including and most importantly, those that hurt or disappointed or upset someone, and humbly bow my head to acknowledge it, apologize and do what I can to make amends, that transforms my mistake into something precious and empowering.
It is not my job to change anyone, but if i fail to change myself when I see that change is absolutely necessary, then I have missed a valuable opportunity.
I have also found that when i feel guilty for something i have done that is bullshit because it insures I will make the mistake or take that action again. Feeling guilty , like anger or pride or jealousy or lust is a mind endarkening emotion with no benefit cause it makes me feel like shit and i am a bad boy and believe I should be punished.
Taking responsibility and learning my lessons is the key!
Glad I am not the only one that makes mistakes.lol. Love the song!
