Step On Mistakes.

Goldfinch60



In life we all make mistakes,

Don’t carry them around,

Don’t carry them around with you.

Each one you make place them,

Place them under your feet

And then you can use them,

Use them as stepping stones,

So you can rise above them

And move into that place,

That better place,

That better place you deserve

By using those mistakes,

Using them as experience

Because experience cannot be taught

It can only be learned,

Learned by your experience,

Your experience in life.
