#no more pain

16th July, 2014 — the day an israeli Elbit drone targeted & killed 4 Palestinian children for playing football on the beach

Never wish them pain, because you’re better than that.

We all make mistakes,
We couldn’t be human if we didn’t,
They say learn from your mistakes,
But maybe it isn’t that easy.

I realise now,
Maybe it isn’t the mistakes we make but our attitudes around them,
Maybe it is time we stop trying to fix the mistakes we make,
And rather move on and leave it in the past.

If we stop dwelling on our mistakes maybe we will be better,
Maybe we won’t blame ourselves anymore,
I have finally had a revelation,
We need to not punish ourself and try to fix our mistakes,
But leave them in the dust and continue our lives.

-A lesson I am finally learning.
