Throughout our lives we make mistakes,
But we must not keep them,
Nor take them around with us.
They can give us a learning curve
And can show us the way.
So each mistake can be used,
Used as a stepping stone
Which can be placed on the floor,
And once there they be used,
Used as the stepping stones
That will lead us,
To lead us to that place,
That place to where we need to go.

So basically, there are no mistakes... Or am I mistaken?
You need to realise your mistakes and accept them as experience and move forward in life.
Andy
Oh i see. My mistake
Learning from our mistakes, sometimes bitterly. But we move on. Positive message thank you.
Thank you Rozina, yes we are always learning.
Andy

Our mistakes help shape us if we are wise enough to learn from them, beautiful message poem my friend ☺

Experience at play. Too many carry these stones instead of walking on them. Great insightful ✍️ write.
Experience just cannot be taught John.

So if i have made loads of mistakes (stepping up stones) does that put me on higher ground than you? LOL... am I climbing for a mighty big fall.
On another note, is there something in the water... why do we seem to be losing poets from mps at this time.... also lack of posts from regulars (including myself)
Those stepping stones do take you to a higher place but you have a couple years to reach me yet. LOL Falling will not be allowed as I will be there to catch you from my higher position. LOL.
There does seem to be a loss of some members but there are a great many new ones on here.
