As you think back, is there a part of you that thinks you made too many mistakes?
Others have probably reminded you from time to time about the 'mistakes' you made...at least from their perspective...
If I were to tell you about all the different decisions in my life... changes... moves... partners, etc., you might consider me in a different light than the 'me' you know Now.
So we don't need others to tell us, because most of us have experienced the 'shudda-cudda-wudda' voices from within... the backward facing perspectives that bring the past into the present so we cannot fully be here Now in the Present...
Perhaps we make a 'mistake' in thinking about 'mistakes'... what if there really weren't any mistakes made... simply relative judgments about actions and decisions made along the path... all grist for the mill of learning and evolving and awakening to the present moment of life...
It seems that when a decision needs to be made, we often depend too much on the western methods of weighing all sides in the logical thinking mode and may decide on which way the pros and cons tip the scales. And I'm not sure if there were times when you just knew the answer from within, but there is a way of knowing that does emerge when it is time ... in the moment... for a choice to be made...
I am not sure if you have had times of being in touch with your intuitive and direct knowing ability, but this ability can be cultivated if you are open to receiving insight from your deepest and highest source of inner wisdom.
Whether we have been mistaken about the nature of mistakes really doesn't matter... we can choose to proceed along our journey's path right Now in the Now by being aware of the whispers and pops that emerge from within... It could be that we have been mistakenly mistaken about mistakes... and perhaps were missing the 'takes' of insight always coming through.
It could be that there are no mistakes really... as all paths and actions eventually lead right here to the present moment of wakeful being here in the present moment.... Still... and again and again... maybe we are being... present... now...
Dear John.

This is one of the most wonderful things I've ever read. It has awakened me to the importance of the written word and how it can inspire and heal. I've written so much inspirational word and have thought to myself these things should be read by many. I now am thinking I must move forward with action rather than just thinking about it. Your words have moved me. Thank you John...
