Life is long and throughout our lives, we keep moving towards our self-improvement. We rise and fall, we get hurt but the important thing is to continue to move on. Life never stops at one thing because no matter what, life has to move on.
Anyways, this is sounding very philosophical and I don’t think so that one has to be very serious and philosophical in life. We can still lead this life in a wonderful way with an easy going attitude, with humor and laughter. But many of us really do not. Why?
Life takes a u-turn for whom who gets fail in some phase of their lives. People lose their all hopes if they lose their jobs or miss some opportunity. Many of us have this tendency to cling to our past always. We keep blaming ourselves for the small mistakes we committed in our past. But why do we keep doing that? Well, you must be thinking that I am sounding like a life preacher who herself is leading a perfect life and giving gyaan to others. But believe me I am amongst you only who also goes through the pangs of guilty, gets hurt and blames herself for her mistakes.
But do you really think so, that the way we criticize ourselves, we really deserve that. If we had some fight with our friend, then we blame us.
We all make mistakes in some way or the other. And that’s the way human beings are. But isn’t it nice that we also learn to forgive ourselves for our mistakes. If fail in some exam, isn’t it really nice to forgive us for not studying enough for the exam instead of punishing ourselves? If we under perform in our job for whatever reasons, then isn’t it more sensible to still believe in our capability and resolve to do well the next day. If we can accept the sorry of other with open heart then why can’t we forgive ourselves for our mistakes?
I might be sounding very philosophical but if we actually look into our nature, then I am sure that we would find that we tend to forget to forgive ourselves. And it is really not too bad to allow ourselves to make mistakes, learn from them, then forget them and move on. I might be repeating my lines but then let me say that life is long and there is always some scope of improvement for us in this life. All the best!
