Finding, as I do...
That life's little cruel jokes tend
to pile up.
The mistakes I make.
The mistakes of others.
Mistakes in general, that slide in from nowhere...
Perfect, I am not.
Yet, finding (foolishly) I expect it in others.
So stepping back I am.
And finding that forgiving others is best.
(Along with myself)
Allowing life's jokes to pass
and laugh at myself and flow.
Knowing that more mistakes will come.
Knowing that those too
I will forgive...
Yes, it's hard to move forward into the future if you have one foot stuck in the past. It's OK to learn from the mistakes of the past and move on, as long as we don't get mired down by them. Forgiving ourselves is probably the hardest thing to do, except killing spiders. That's worse.
