In life we all make mistakes,
But do not carry them around,
Do not carry them around with you.
Use them as stepping stones,
Stepping stones to move you on,
Move you on to a better place.
So never regret making them
As they help you in life,
It is called experience
And you cannot teach experience.

Welcome, Andy🙏🏻🕊️
A great metaphor and excellent wisdom in it. I have enough stepping stones to build a large dam
Most kind soren. That dam will be full of wisdom.

That's very true.I have made my share of mistakes but I think I learned something from all of them.This poem is wonderful and wise
I feel the same David, mistakes teach you things. Thank you.

Each and every human has something to learn from their life. Well expressed!!!
They certainly do Salvia, thank you for your comment.

So true. Yet there are some I do regret. Experience can be a difficult taskmaster. Nice work.

Thank you John. Yes very true.

I am in fact lumbered with a couple o those stepping stones on my back, but will try to dump them, I think.....
Yes just drop them off Dave and step on them instead of carrying them.

Easy to say harder to do 🌹
But it makes you learn to move forward Teddy.
Andy
It surely does. 💜
