Second Chances

I recently learned that mistakes, though they shouldn't, define you. People will take your mistakes and use them against you even though that is entirely messed up. To much do people take these mistakes and whether you learn from them or not they use them to belittle you and make you feel bad about yourself. I want to make it very aware that mistakes are normal for humans and this means you have to take a chance every day that you are going to screw up and you may lose something from it. Do not let it get you down, use it to get better. Take all your mistakes and grow from them. You have to make that choice on your own, I'm only telling you this because I wish someone would have told me. It took me a long time to come to terms with my mistakes and tell myself I am worth more. I had to learn that even though we make mistakes it doesn't make us horrible people. It only shows our human nature. Now some mistakes are very serious and have consequences. If you made a choice and it was a bad one then you have to be grown enough to admit you have somethings to work on. Don't just say it though actually take the time to work on yourself and better for your own good and the good of those you love. I believe in second chances and feel that everyone deserves to have a chance to learn and grow. Now if you make the same mistake twice are you really learning?
