Sinful Nature

"Every sinner has a future, every Saint has a past."
We're all going somewhere, and we all came from somewhere.

We are all born sinners, we can't run from it. I think the first step towards being happy is excepting the fact that we never will be perfect, and that we are going to make mistakes thoughout our lives. Some people are never happy because they spend all of their time striving for perfection. I used to be on the same road until one day I decided to hit the brakes, and just STOP. There comes a point where just have to tell yourself to relax, and that you're chasing the wind if your trying to be perfect. Yeah, you've messed up- WHO CARES.

"You live and you learn; at any rate you live." -Douglas Adams

People are always going to be judging, people are always going to talk. There will always be a positive and a negative comment to all your actions and statements. Deciding to be you, and sticking by your standards and beliefs is the only way around it. The truth is more people care about themselves and their own image than yours. The only opinion that matters is Gods. On earth, you find that the real people who matter and care about you, love you no matter what. Mistakes, bad days, good days, embarassments, failures.

Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement. -Henry Ford

How would we ever get anywhere if we didn't learn from our mistakes? I think our sinful nature sucks, but in a way it's a blessing. Experience is necessary in life. What better way to learn than you own way, even if it is the harder way?

Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success. -Dale Carnegie

Accept your mistakes
Learn from regrets
Love your flaws
