Strength is knowing the good and haveing the will power to do it.
It has been along week for me. Thankfully I have had a couple of really really great friends keeping me from loosing my way.
There was once a guy named Stanley and poor Stanley it had it rough and poor Stanley he made mistakes.
I am trying not to be Stanley, but we all are. Lucky for me there are 150 things keeping me from making those mistakes. They are called miles.
I am going to get some much needed sleep.
Good night my friends, good night and good luck.
All I have to do is walk out of my apartment and I am so Stanley.
Sometimes I think strength is allowing yourself the opportunity to make those mistakes.
Cos most days I’d much rather stay inside.
Which isn’t all that fun, really.
But, when I leave the house, it’s inevitable that some mistake will be made throughout the day.
Strength is also forgiving yourself for it, so that you can sleep at night.
Which is where most of my problems lie.
Or would that be ‘lay?’
I’m not sure.
Anyhow, learning from your mistakes, as you’ve mentioned to me, is important.
But, sometimes that can be a really slow process.
We all make different kinds of mistakes.
In your case, yeah those miles are probably a good thing.
However, if there weren’t so many miles between It and Strumpet, we could go out for sushi and forget for a little while about all our mistakes.
Or, at least, help us be better at forgiving ourselves for making them.
Which is Step One in the learning from them process.
But, mostly, it’s the sushi that just seems to make everything better.
And good friends.
