Every time when we even try to correct our mistakes or say to another, that we would like to turn back the time, the other always says: “It is not possible.” True, but what if it were!? Would we do things the same way or change it completely? And eventually how big of a difference would it really make, since we can not change the way things are anyway. - A bit serious topic.
A human is meant to make mistakes. I make mistakes every day, starting from the smallest, like forgetting to buy washing liquid or more important – bread. And then I curse myself, that how could I have been so distracted. And promising myself, that next time, I will make a list with CAPITAL LETTERS all colored in bright yellow. But, washing liquid is not the most important and vital thing (yeah, bread is kind of important!). The more responsibility we take, harder the decisions will be. And the worse part is that we enjoy these decisions, until we know for sure that things have gone totally wrong.
The situations always have a tendency to do that (and we are still amazed) – it is like a sequence of events. You are interested, you get comfortable, you get too comfortable and then something bad happens, just because you were too lazy. But then again, what is wrong of allowing yourself some relaxation time after you got bored. Like a nice vacation in the Bahamas or somewhere like that. To take some time off, rethink your values and then just come back and see if this really works for you. And if it doesn’t, then hey, it didn’t and you just move on with your life. And that is that. Nothing difficult, right!
Now comes the hardest part: once in a sunny evening drink too much or are emotionally unstable (hm, I mean tired and things have gone bad, again!!!) and then you just start to think, oh, why didn´t things go the other way (a better and more convenient way). And we swear to ourselves, that we could have made it. Personally, I never have completely understood, why the heck I feel like crap, just because I can´t turn back the time.
Wouldn´t it be nice if you could remake a decision? You have the experience now; you know that you do! Well for me, the best thing that I could ever learn from all the “shots”, is that practice makes perfect. But, I did not know what will happen, when I was 10, right. We do not know everything when we are just children. Anyway, I sometimes miss the time, which I could have spent on, for example, learning to play the piano properly or reading a book, which I have no time to read now. Because eventually we have only a limited amount of time given on this planet and if we do not use it, now that would be a shame.
No one is perfect and we should all be allowed to make mistakes and never correct them. Because we learn from them after the experience, and we become more educated (on the part how to live a life in 66 years). But there will be times, when we really have the opportunity to make a mends; we can make a correction to our mistakes – by taking a shopping list with big capital letters and adopting it into our lifestyle. May be then, I would not feel so bad about forgetting about the bread.
