The Picture of Your Life


Everyone makes mistakes. One mistake. Two mistakes. Dozen mistakes. Today, Yesterday, Tomorrow. We all make mistakes. Every minute of our life we take decisions, some turn out to be mistakes. Some we are being blamed for. Sometimes we are told to learn from others' mistakes. But i believe we cannot learn more from our own. So you just go out there and make your own mistakes. Of course you will fall down, get hurt, cry, laugh, love, struggle, but you will always get back up.

Life is too short to stay there down and feel regret for those mistakes. You just believe that everything happens for a reason. And if you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it'd be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

It’s not what you look like or what you have. But it’s the little things in life that make it all worth while.

Watching the sunset and the moon rise. Spending time doing crazy things with your friends. Random trips in the middle of the night. Enjoying the beautiful mountains. Drinking a nice cold glass of lemonade on a hot summer day, or a hot cup of cocoa on a cold winter day. Catching a snowflake on your tongue. Dancing in the rain. Taking bubble baths. Singing as if no one could hear you. Staying up all night with your best friend. Laughing. Falling in love. Conquering your biggest fear. Watching the waves crash into the sand. Spending a day shopping in Paris.

Life doesnt always give second chances, take the first one. Live it to the fullest with no regrets from yesterday. Maybe you will make your own mistakes but then you will never regret about things you missed out doing.

Just remember that you only get one shot.
One shot at this day.
One shot at this minute.
One shot at this age.
One shot at life.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment, and take from it everything you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

So what does one mistake mean if you see the big picture? The picture of your own life!!

SO with you on this. If we don't live life...what have we got...nothing. Mistakes are part of it, with out mistakes we'd be perfect, and no one is perfect. :)

"everyone makes mistakes.its human. i feel sad for those who don't make any mistakes or think they don't. Wats important is to admit to it , atleast to oneself, laern frm it n find a way to move on"

To err is human, so it's OK to make mistakes- of course to a certain degree. We all know what are mistakes which can be forgiven and mistakes which can't be forgiven. I don't mind making petty mistakes though I might regret it later. We are not machines, thus we are not programmed to only make perfect decisions!
