Personal Narrative: Learning From Mistakes

Learning from mistakes

I believe in forgiving, but never forgetting in life. Mistakes in life are bound to happen. The same stands for betrayal going a long way in life. Throughout our life, we have trials and tribulations and the question always appears in our minds; should I forgive this person? Without any level of hesitation the answer should be simple. Think, if I were to go to the hospital because I got shot and they offered me a bandaid and said I would be fine, I would be furious! With that wound still exposed, I would want treatment, care, and a process of time to recover. The same goes for forgiving, loving, and caring. With that said, I guarantee that you will never forget that situation, and would stay away from that hospital so they don't make the same mistake.

It could have been sibling, friend, relative, etc. So, this situation should involve anyone. A child always has his/her favorite toy. But when it gets taken away by someone that we trusted and cared for, that trust and care gets lost into furiousness that you can't play with your truck because someone else wanted to play. As a child, they are bound to remember lessons and life mistake. So now, when they come back to play, I bet they don't go and play with the same child that took their toy the last time. Yet again, they learn from their mistakes even though they forgave. We have many life experiences with forgiving but never forgetting. But we never knew that we carried this characteristic trait. For another example; many individuals get punished for doing something they knew they weren't suppose to do. Even to this day, we still get punished. But I knew that when I got in trouble for something, didn't matter what, I would never do it again for fear that I would get a whoopin as painful as last
