Mistakes

I've been reflecting a lot as I've been journaling my thoughts and feelings.  Ideas come to me from inspirational cards, podcasts, conversations, and my own thoughts.  My hope is that it inspires us all to give ourselves some grace as we living this human experience. 

I have made so many mistakes in my life that I've lost count.  I remember as a young adult that my number #1 goal was to be free of guilt from making mistakes.  Little did I know that this would be a life long journey.  

In re-reading the Four Agreements again, I was captured by these ideas, 

When you do your best you learn to accept yourself. But you have to be aware and learn from your mistakes.  Learning from your mistakes means you practice, look honestly at the results, and keep practicing.  This increases your awareness.

All we can do is learn from our mistakes and try better next time.  Be kind to yourself.
