Learning a valuable lesson

I learnt a valuable lesson today. Life is short and we must live it fully. We make mistakes along our way, and feel the regret and remorse only after it is done. What we can do is to pick ourselves up, and fix the problem so we will not continue living with this regret.

Sometimes, when we feel extremely angry with with anyone, think again before acting. Anger clouds your mind red. The red will slowly and gradually cloud your sight. It will prevent you from doing what you think is right. It may come in the form of Word Vommit, the Body losing control. A moment being swallowed by anger will result in fearful consequences. Hence, I urge you to think again. Think twice, thrice or more being acting.

If you have done wrong, just stand up and bravely admit your mistakes. They were yours to begin with so don't try to shift the blame and responsibility. Own up. Someone who did wrong and owns up is more righteous that one who did wrong and pretends it wasn't his fault.

If you seek for forgiveness, you will be given. Because God loves us so. Ask for it with a heart that truly begs for it.

So now, I pray to God for courage and bravery for me to stand up to my sin. I pray for the heart to forgive and forget. I pray for the willingness to be forgiven.

Amen.
