mistake

The mistakes of the past are just that the past. They are there for a reminder of what had happened. They are not a predictor of what will happen. The only way that we can let the future happen is to move forward with determination and an attitude that will get us to the future. If we are dishearten by the mistakes of our past then we will reflect more on the mistake then we will passing go. We will be in a constant mode of pause or idleness. To have a determined look on the mistake as something that won't hold us back but give us the ability to move forward in a new direction.
If a mistake was like a road map it would be the construction and the choice to move forward would be the detour. No matter what you will get to your destination. But if you can not pass this construction you are idle and in time of wait there might never be a time of detour.

I am encouraged by the fact that the mistakes that I have done have happened sometimes I am idle looking at the mess that lay before me and wonder how in the world will I ever get through this but the thing is there is always a sign hanging over my head that says detour. I am willing to move forward but it is hard. Moving forward in a new direction is uncharted territory. It is scary but there is always a way back to the original plan these path only has to be followed for a little while and then there is a courage of empowerment. You made it through.
