At this moment, I have forgiven myself for my past mistakes.
I know I made some poor decisions, and if I knew the outcome ahead of time I would have made a different decision.
But I made the best decision that I could make at the time, knowing what I knew at the time.
Hindsight is always 20/20.
Anyhow, I have learned to stop looking back into my past, and to focus more on my present and on the bright future life that I have planned for myself.
Looking backwards is not helpful and can delay one’s growth.
Peace

I think that in life no human being is perfect, its amazing however that we can continue to beat ourselves up over things that we did in the past. There is a quote that i heard some time ago that really made me think. ” Its not until you give up the hope that the past could have been any different that you can truly be happy”
It really rang a bell with me so i try to live this now!

Al Franken – “Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.”

I don’t think i will ever forgive myself 4 leaving my children. although they’re in the safest place with their father, who doesn’t do drugs or drink 2 excess. he loves them dearly. whereas i’ve been in chaos these past few years… it’s still no excuse. what i am finding the hardest thing now is the hurdles (some actual fact the rest my mind has gone a wonderful job in making a mountain out of a molehill) i keep coming up against 2 me getting into contact with them. i will get in contact with them hopefully b4 xmas.
