I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. Some of the gravest mistakes I’ve made were the same mistakes made over and over again. Once bitten, twice shy, they say. But the third? I find it stupid. And many times I did stupid over and again.
When I do come to my senses how stupid I was, I do get angry with myself. “How could you be so fucking stupid again. Did you not learn from your last mistake, and the one before that? For crying out loud!” I will hear myself screaming to myself in my head.
But it’s okay… Ups and downs. When you are down, down, down, just remember to get back up. I’m stubborn like that, you know. I always get back up. At least I do try.
Embrace the mistake. Learn from it (again). Accept yourself and forgive. Then, we move forth.
Selamat Hari Raya, everybody. While you are seeking for forgiveness from others, don’t forget to seek forgiveness from yourself too.
Kosong-kosong. To new beginnings.
Bimbo
