I was laughing with a friend today, and I said, make the most of your mistakes everyday. You only go this way once, make sure you make all the mistakes you can!
Well, I was surprised myself by this, but seeing as I tend to want to be perfect in all things -- clearly an impossibility -- it was good to think that mistakes are not always such a bad thing.
Most mistakes can be rectified, or we can change directions...the only way to make no mistakes is not to live. I certainly never got 100s on all my school work. I wouldn't have wanted to either.
And I do want to live life to the fullest.
Some mistakes don't turn out to be mistakes in the long run.
What do you think? Have you ever thought something was a mistake only to find out later it wasn't?
