There is so much talk about being the best version of yourself. That would be ideal, but realistically, we are human beings, with flaws and shortcomings. No one is perfect and those that believe they are can take a second look.
You will make mistakes along the way. You will do things that you wish you had never done. You will say things that you will regret later. There is no doubt about this. The more we work on ourselves certainly the less frequent these events occur.
Are we
supposed to get caught up in trying to do everything perfectly?
Are we
supposed to live our lives for the sake of the judgement of others?
Life is
about learning and sometimes we learn the greatest lessons from things that we may
have done in error. “Wrong” is a
judgement. You have to recognize a
mistake as being incorrect.
According
to merriam-webster.com a “mistake” by definition is “a wrong action or statement
proceeding from faulty judgment, inadequate knowledge, or inattention”. There is no calculated intention.
It just came about without a concentrated effort. Sometimes things just happen.
We are not
perfect beings, but we can pay closer attention to how we live our lives, to
the way we receive others and our interaction, especially with those we
love. We tend to allow our worst when in
the company of those we are comfortable with.
It is not malicious intent (at least unless we are provoked). When
provoked it is certainly not acceptable to use violence or intend to
emotionally hurt others.
Live your
life to the best of your abilities. Know
that you will make mistakes along the way. You are human with emotions, but also
recognize the fact that others do as well.
Even those that do not show emotion have sensitivity that is either not
easily brought to the surface or is held back.
In the heat
of the moment, most people think that anything goes, but we must take
responsibility for our words and our actions.
Pick your
battles and gauge what is worth arguing over and in some circumstance whether
it is important to be right.
Physical
violence is inexcusable and so are hurtful intentions (whether words or
actions) with or without provocation.
As it is
said “sometimes s*&t happens” so don’t be too hard on yourself. Learn from
your mistakes and be the best you can be. With the right intent and self-control,
we can be compassionate and understanding even in the heat of the moment.
