And it is only one price to pay-Life itself,as every moment which was spent could be either awakening or weakening.

Absolutely really ! Of it has good quote !

Of It not important to make errors. The important is to act to rectify when we notice it.

Sometimes it manages at me to make errors which show there not to be ! Very fortunately that we are not always the price pay for our errors, it would prevent us from choosing when we are at the crossroads…

Mistake – When we make one, we ponder what to do…
Should we tell someone about it?
How can I avoid making this mistake again?
Can I ever regain people’s trust again?

We all feel bad when we make a mistake. But, taking the responsibility is the first step of correcting it. To swollow up your pride and admit that there was a mistake made, then the healing begins.

As soon as I have realized that I made a mistake I will try to make it up.. I will accept to pay my .. part of the .. price due for it.. Sometimes things are not very .. clear regarding who is the ‘victim’..
Responsibility is a rare virtue…. I remember the scene in Paradize : Eve has deceived me … The Ophis [snake] has deceived me.. Poor Adam did not take his own part of responsibilities!!! ;-]
LOVE,
Thelma.

Probably one of the greatest indicators of genuine maturity – the willingness to accept responsibility for one’s mistakes. And it has nothing to do with age. Some people are not able to do this even when they are ninety. I think, for example, of the perpetrators of the Holocaust and how many of them went into hiding and never, even in all those years, developed the courage to step forward and say “I did this thing – I am responsible.”

The ability to accept responsibility is very important, because when we have the courage to “own” our actions, when we can step forward and take responsibility for them, only then can we begin to learn and grow from our mistakes.

Ok, I will try. Usually I always do that, but at times I have the tendency to hide …Not often, but at times I have no strength to face everything.
