Hello fellow classmates, this is my first post and I suppose it needs to be reflective as the instructions have stated. These past few weeks I have made some reckless decisions having to do with relations to other people, really just one person (I really don't want to go into very much detail at all). Anyway, things have ended badly between me and said person and I have been very distracted by the whole thing. After much reflection I have found that I am more disappointed in myself than I am with the person who jilted me. I feel it would be best if I found the courage to forgive myself, because at the root of it all I think that is why I feel so poorly. Somehow, and maybe with the help of this class, I will be able to understand how to except the mistakes I make, and move on, rather than beat myself up over them. Good luck to you all in the upcoming weeks,
~Katie
Hi Katie,
ReplyDeleteI think that at some point you will be able to forgive yourself for whatever mistakes you have made. I am also very tough on myself and have had to learn to deal with mistakes and move on. Trust me I have made some pretty awesome mistakes, but I have come to terms with my past and just learn from all of my experiences. So I ask you this; if you never make any mistakes, what will you learn?
Well, I suppose if you were super awesome and never made any mistakes you could learn from everyone else’s through observation. Unfortunately, I tend to want to touch flames even after seeing someone else get burned out of sheer curiosity I suppose.
