Re: WHAT % OF PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM THAT HAVE MADE MISTAKES THAT WOULDN?T ADMIT THEM?
I will be the first to admit I made ALOT of MISTAKES in my life. Do I REGRET THEM? its not too many days that go by that I REGRET the MISTAKES I made in life.it took me a very longtime to put my PAST behind me and move on in life. I couldn?t count on both of my hands the MISTAKES I made in life, I was a GOOD LIAR when it came to BORROWING MONEY to support my GAMBLING HABIT for a MANY YEARS. its a good feeling when you can hold your head up no matter if you have MONEY or not, REPUTATION is one of the most IMPORTANT things in LIFE. I am just curious to know how many people that have not made MISTAKES in life because of GAMBLING....
What a gutsy post...
Rock on rainbow!
I, too, have made so many mistakes that it would take forever to list them and even longer to remember ALL of them...
It's ironic you mention lying because HONESTY has been a problem for me when I was drinking and drugging...
But I don't really have any regrets because life is too short and I live for today...
Not yesterday or tomorrow!
I was always cash register honest but I always hid my feelings from others...
I have so many CHARACTER DEFECTS...
Here are a few besides DISHONESTY...
PRIDE, SELF-PITY, SELF CENTEREDNESS, ARROGANCE, SELFISHNESS, SLOTH, JEALOUSY, ENVY, GREED, GLUTTONY, LUST IMPATIENCE & INTOLERANCE...
Slowly, but surely, I have decided not to take myself so seriously on this journey called LIFE, and then, and only then, I sometimes have days where I can be helpful to others...
When I live my life in this mannner, it's amazing how many of my character defects disappear...
Great topic!!!
