Forgive Yourself for Mistakes You make in Life

in #hive-1745782 years ago

The truth is no one knows tomorrow, the very next minute could be a turning point for you, and that turning point may or may not involve pain, regrets, and a whole lot of other emotions you probably wouldn't want to confront.

Know this and know peace, you will make the wrong decision a lot of times in your life, you will say wrongs things at the right time and right things at the wrong time, your friends will leave you and new ones will come, and you may feel like you are losing yourself and you may cry out sometimes.

Regrets hit differently, probably the worst of feelings one may ever have to face as they go through life but when these happen either of two things follows and I would recommend one and not the other. What follows is that we either hold on to the past or keep wishing we could go back in time and change things and do it better.

Or we learn to let go of the past, learn to let by-gone be by-gone, learn to focus on what's ahead of us, and above all else forgive ourselves for the mistakes we made whiles going through life. Is ok to have those emotional floods now and then, it is ok to cry when need be, and it is ok to feel down every once in a while. It only shows that you are human too.

But don't let it overwhelm you, don't let it control you, don't let it breed negativity in you. No, let go, forgive yourself, and heal. Time will continue to remain your ally, goodness will come, just try to be at peace with yourself. It is only a matter of time.

To err is human. Learn from your mistakes and move on.😊

If we can't forgive ourselves, how would we be able to forgive others for their wrong doings?.... It's not possible, so let's endeavor to forgive ourselves

Hi @auntyesther, I see you're new and you'd need a few suggestions to be able to navigate easily on Hive.

First let's start with communities. Here's the list of Hive communites you can choose from next time, before posting. Each community has it's own rules, so please make sure you read them and choose according to your topic. This post for example would fit in Emotions & Feelings instead of OCD as OCD is for topics that don't fit in any community.

Choosing the right tag is also important. I see you're using Leofinance, which is for finance and crypto related content, which your post isn't. Next you're using photography, while the photographs are not yours. Tagging whales and curator projects like ocd, appreciator and curangel is also not recommended as it brings you no advantage and it is considered tag abuse. Tags should be selected according to the topic of your post.

Last, but not least, you've been here since February and you made 1 (ONE) single comment. Can you tell me why are you here? What's your goal on Hive?
