another mistake

another mistake

A Chapter by Lyn Anderson
"

on conversations with a dear friend

"
I can't say I won't
repeat
the same mistakes
I did before,
but hopefully,
and with a little luck,
they won't be the
same
anymore.

Nice short poem and to the point! Hopefully our mistakes won't be the same anymore and we will learn our lessons.

yes, that is the hope.
They say we learn from our mistakes, but sometimes I know I have repeated the same one.

Not exactly the same, but certainly, some things are harder than others not to.
Everything happens for a reason. Just keep your head high and focus on what you want and deserve. It will turn out if you stay positive. xo :)

That is true, I am sure. For now I am just spending time avoiding pit falls if I can ...
I once told a friend that repeating a past mistake is a transgression against the soul. We are meant to learn...rise...and to overcome.

Here's hoping not up for a threepete
It's true
we learn from our mistakes

But we are human
we will do it again
hoping for a different outcome...

(example --- DIVORCE)

Ha ha. So glad I am not alone in my double divorce.
Short and sweet. Such truth to these words.. We all make mistakes, hopefully we take the lessons from them and learn enough not to make the same ones twice... I love the way you constructed this simple, but powerful piece. .. very nice.

Nicely stated Kl. Sometimes we repeat things in our life but we do it with a new perspective.

You are most welcome.
I don't know...why are you still up? ;)) But we are glad you are.
Sometimes we need to make the same mistake more than once so it really sticks out in our brain and screams DANGER the next time it arises. Aptly pen''d.
