Making Mistakes

Making Mistakes

Here's the thing about mistakes. Sometimes, even when you know something's a mistake,
you gotta make it anyway.

Sometimes you have to touch that hot plate even though you know it will burn your hand.
Sometimes you have to get a hair color or a hair cut we know will look awful, but you
get it. Sometimes you have to taste the disgusting food to make it better the next time
you cook. Sometimes you have to forget your purse in a restaurant so you can learn to
be less forgetful the next time. Sometimes you have fall for the wrong person in order
to find the right person for yourself.

Sometimes you have to make the mistake in order to avoid making it the next time around.A mistake is simply another way of doing things.Someone gave a very good analogy: What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, don’t you? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim!
Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!
You know, there are certain things in life where you know it's a mistake but you don't
really know it's a mistake because the only way to know that it really is a mistake is
to make that mistake and go, "Yup, that was a mistake".So really, the bigger mistake
would be to not make the mistake because then you'll go about your whole life not
knowing whether it was a mistake or not. Got it?
