Our present is who and what we are today while our past is what and who we have been,this includes what we did and didnt do,decisions,we took or didnt take as well as mistakes etc sometimes we may have done things that work to our advantage or against us ,anytime i take the right decision i celebrate but when am wrong i beat myself but dont wallow in self pity neither do i stay down.there is always something to be learnt fomour past mistakes.the lessons may not be automatic but we just have tomake a choice to find the lesson that lies therein so we dont go through same pain pr loss again.i am never in a hurry to start again after a mistake but try to find the lessons from the mistake to understand where i went wrong to avoid a repeat and the n acquire better thinking habits ,some people never seem to learn fromtheir mistakes though,,however ,it is a good thing to make mistakes but the question is how often and how well do we learn fromour mistakes and errors?

Life is how we live it. Whatever path we choose to take, it will be a continuous learning process. When we make mistakes along the way, lessons are learned. If we make the right choices, lessons are learned, too. Whatever pain and happiness we encounter during the process is all part of the making of US. Every mistake we make and every right decision we took make up who we are right now. That is how we create our character, our strenghts, our weaknesses, our outlook in life. I salute you for appreciating what you had gone through then finding glory in it after. =) Lots of luck.
