We All Make Mistakes

We all make mistakes .... but the question is what do you do with them.

Do you learn from them so as not to repeat them. Do you self judge or have compassion on yourself? Do you say you are sorry if someone else is involved? What can you learn about yourself from taking an authentic and non defensive appraisal of what happened?

If we don't learn from our mistakes, we are not growing. God does not ask us to not make mistakes, as sometimes going down the wrong path is how we learn what the right path is --- we learn through contrast. But He/She does want us to learn from our mistakes so that we can grow closer to Him. For this is why we are here having these grand experiences in this unique reality. We are here to experience ourselves as Love.

So your mistakes are not permanent. They are not "sins" but rather errors that lead you to a greater understanding when you let down your defenses, see your conditioning and false beliefs, and have willingness to let go of the false. This is the perspective and attitude you should strive to hold in everything you do, in all of your relationships. It is a holy attitude.
