Mistakes are meant to be made, but never let them define you as a person.
You are not your mistakes and you will never be, even if you are labeled.
So you should start seeing the beauty of mistakes because there is more to the mistakes and it is misfortunate.
I wish I could show you that it is okay to make mistakes because that is what truly makes us human. However, certain things are not meant for showing, but for you to experience yourself. If there is anything that you take away from this article it's that 1) you’re not a mistake and 2) there is so much beauty in making mistakes.
You see, a lot of times we feel like our mistakes identify us in ways that we would not like them to. But no mistake should define who you are as a person, just because you made a small error or the wrong move, does not mean anything. It does mean it is who you are unless you choose to go further and commit the same mistakes.
The beauty of making mistakes lies in the fact that there is always the possibility of recovery and redemption after the realization of the mistake made. Do not let mistakes stop you from continuing on with your day. Making mistakes is only the beginning of learning. It is a learning process of knowing what is right and wrong from a small error. Mistakes can be brutal to handle and to embrace, but at the end of the day, we need to accept the fact that we make mistakes. It is only normal to make them, there is not a single person in this planet that has never made a wrong move before. But despite making these mistakes, it is very necessary for us to accept it and not make them again.
Acceptance comes with the harsh reality that what has happened is done and there is no changing to it. But this acceptance will allow you to know what you could do different the next time you encounter a similar situation. Often times people struggle to break from their habits, but when it comes to these errors, we should stop ourselves from making the same mistakes again. In order to realize that you are making a mistake is to not make it again. In general, mistakes teach us and guide us in the better direction for the future. When you make a mistake, you should admit to it, learn from it, and don't make it again.
