Why do I allow the mistakes of the past to hunt me?

Those mistakes made in good faith

The ones made while trusting so blindly

The one yet made for the love of adventure

The mistakes that came to be because of error in judgement

Did I really make those mistakes?

It must be the other part of me that is long gone

It can’t be me sitting here

It couldn’t have being this reasonable, articulate, objective, charismatic, me

But it could have being me

Had those errors, mistakes not being part of your integrity building?

Have they not been able to help you be better in life?

Have they not being a blessing in disguise come to think of it?

Just in one word,

You are wasting time brooding about none-issue

You are focusing on the past that cannot be changed

You are succumbing to the past that you ought to control and not the other way round

You are making another big mistake!!!

Hmmm I now I trust but with sense

Now I make friends but with caution

Now I speak when without fear or favour

Now I know keeping silent has it’s blessing

Now I know that there will always be adventure, there will always be news things to explore

Now I know that I need to move on error or no error, blunder or blunder, mistake or no mistake

Now I know that no one is in infallible

But, I keep this in mind in all I do:

Is it the truth?

Is it fair to all concern?

Will God approve?

Is your conscience in line with your act?

Yes, I think before I act!!!
