Thought for the day


"There are two types of decisions. Ones where you are right, and ones that you learn from."

I can't remember if I read this somewhere or somehow put it together from a bunch of things I read, but either way, remembering this has given me a lot of comfort over the years.

It's helped me forgive myself for the things I've done that may have hurt other people (and myself) and asked me to gently learn from those mistakes to make sure I do my best not to do them again.

I've found this to be one of my greatest lessons so far - to become a better person, you have to make amends, but you have to forgive yourself first.
