I was mocked for years for assuming it was a lingerie shop. <br />We used to dock in Rotterdam and once got pulled in a hire car whilst looking for a lad who I'd played rugby against. The Buzzies took us to his bar and all was well. We stopped the night but there was very little to show for it other than a headache.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-28689726806830193942018-01-23T00:31:53.778+00:002018-01-23T00:31:53.778+00:00Yes, I do know Steve.Yes, I do know Steve.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-80935141776927851632018-01-22T13:17:15.908+00:002018-01-22T13:17:15.908+00:00I think as we get older we become more conscious o...I think as we get older we become more conscious of the mistakes of our youth.

Your phrase "wrong steps, lapses of judgement, times I was silent when I should have spoken up" has particular resonance for me. You are right to surmise that I keep my mistakes to myself. They rattle around in my head and often haunt me. Nobody else knows - but I shan't be adopting a dog - especially not the kind of dog you describe!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-29945836955321198332018-01-22T10:06:42.223+00:002018-01-22T10:06:42.223+00:00I notice that you put the word "full" in...I notice that you put the word "full" in capitals so I realise the impact of regretting upon your life Kathy.

I relive a lot of my mistakes, even ones made as a child. I had a very strict mother and this has shaped my thoughts forever. It's hardwired into my brain to feel inadequate and less than perfect.<br />We have to live with it. I have seen a psychiatrist to try to help myself and have read a stack of self help books. It's difficult to change ones fundamental behaviours but that shouldn't stop us from trying.<br />Best wishes.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16093533351238991113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-66697624278072048242018-01-21T22:02:43.599+00:002018-01-21T22:02:43.599+00:00And upon reading my comment through again this mor...And upon reading my comment through again this morning....I notice I made a typo in it!!!!!!!<br /><br />"some things"....not "somethings"!!!

Do you see the size of your mistakes, compared to all that earthly terrain and the infinite emptiness beyond? That's the actual size of the errors you've made. <br /><br />I know we tend to think of ourselves are the pin-point of all existence, but we're really just one of billions of momentary inhabitants of an average planet on the edge of an ordinary galaxy. Dust. <br /><br />If this thought doesn't help (it works for me in a lot of cases when I get too wrapped up in myself), you should consider confession. Telling one other person your worst secrets (and I assume your sense of guilt over your mistakes is so dire that you keep them secret) is very freeing. A therapist has probably heard worse, a priest is anonymous (especially if you're not Catholic) and, if you don't cotton to the idea of dealing with a human, writing them down on paper and burning them is also effective. <br /><br />Hearing yourself say the secrets out loud, or reading your story as you've written it down, is a fantastic way of making them shift out of your brain and into the ether. In other words, it's a good way of letting go. I speak from experience.<br /><br />I also remember all my wrong steps, lapses of judgement, times I was silent when I should have spoken up. I loathe myself, but I atone by being more accountable these days, by being more thoughtful, pro-active, and loud. And I've learned to let go.<br /><br />And if you've ever made the mistake of being mean to a dog, you can atone by adopting the oldest, deafest, smelliest, least house-broken pup in your local animal shelter and giving it a good, loving home for the rest of its days.<br /><br />Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11990041745880166605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-16894457080813462212018-01-21T19:11:16.378+00:002018-01-21T19:11:16.378+00:00Didn't you look through some folks' window...Didn't you look through some folks' windows when you visited the red light area in Amsterdam?Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-31418080723779525592018-01-21T19:07:14.414+00:002018-01-21T19:07:14.414+00:00It's true that when life's curtains are cl...It's true that when life's curtains are closed forever, our mistakes will not trouble us.

There are many possibilities. Sometimes this is revealed right away (like if you get lost and have a better time on that path than the one you chose) and sometimes you have to wait a long while to see it. As I get older, I forget the so-called mistakes anyway. So, I recommend just living a long life and eventually those mistakes will all go away.Jan Blawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697621979002856884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-33707094893725752942018-01-21T17:06:47.877+00:002018-01-21T17:06:47.877+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.A Heron's Viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06563706152609630696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-54160560921968555252018-01-21T16:10:53.680+00:002018-01-21T16:10:53.680+00:00I have made a couple of huge mistakes in my life. ...I have made a couple of huge mistakes in my life. And, I mean enormous! Those I think about now and then and what the consequences were and still are. I believe that people make mistakes every day....small ones or ones that might make another feel unhappy....if just for a moment. Those small mistakes one must ask for forgiveness or correct immediately as best you can and then let it go. I am an outspoken and truthful woman. Well, I speak my truth, anyway. So, I try very hard as I get older to just keep my mouth shut if I think that my words or actions will harm another in any slight way. Which tests my courage and resolve almost every day. As you can imagine.Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04918984384091134565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-52759207556410183892018-01-21T15:48:45.286+00:002018-01-21T15:48:45.286+00:00I've made plenty of mistakes in my life, but w...I've made plenty of mistakes in my life, but without a couple of them I would have missed out on some good things later. One example was my disastrous, very brief first marriage. If it had not taken place, I would not have lived in the right spot to meet the future love of my life.
