We can walk away from our past, but
We carry those thoughts and
Experiences with us with every step.
We also carry the physical Aftereffects,
Which is most times very unfortunate.
Life is a progression, a series of changes.
We should regard it as such,
As a training ground, to
Teach us things that perhaps our Minds thinks
Our Spirits already know.
Learning is also a progression, a series of stages of gradual
(And Hopefully,) improvements.
Most often, we are our
Own worst critics;
Don’t be too hard on yourself.
We are all human, therefore we all make a lot
Of mistakes.
No one is perfect, it is a goal to
Aim for,
But not to the point of obsession.
Perfection is too lofty a goal for us mere
Humans; it should only be to guide us;
To give a direction for us to follow.

Disclaimer: This is not me nor did I take this image. HOWEVER
I worked in the Titan IIC Nuclear Missile Silo from 1976-1980, and this could very well have BEEN me (except that cameras onsite
At the time would have been a very big violation, if not treason
Had you been caught)
