It has been raining cats and dogs these past few days. The rain caused turmoil and flooded the whole platform, flowed to the connected stream, and created massive destruction. The rainwater should flow continuously from the higher stream to the lower stream, but some debris blocked the passageway and refrain the water from flowing. There was so much noise, accusations, humiliation, defamation, shame, and oppression by closing the right ear to hear the explanation of the left party.
It's truly ironic to live in a judgemental society, a place full of people who commit mistakes, and full of people who judge someone's mistakes destructively.
It is human nature to commit mistakes, but the response to the error is our own decision, our own will. And sometimes, small errors become bigger because of how people corrected the errors, how people respond to the situation - constructively or destructively. And that is what counts, the response.
We hurt people, we piss off people, we corrected errors, but what matters is how we back up, accept the mistakes, forgive, and move on. And it is always the response that makes all the difference.
When someone threw stones at us, should we also throw stones back at that person? Sometimes, it is easier if we pick up bread and throw it back at that person, it is lighter and harmless.
Sometimes it is better if we open our both ears to hear what other people are saying. Because even though we know that we are right and correcting the wrong one, we sometimes unawarely committing mistakes while fixing the bugs and glitches, the errors of others.
Because we are just human, and we all can commit mistakes.
Criticism and Racism, are these even acceptable?
We may have different colors, different races, different languages, different cultures, different perspectives, different mindsets, different opinions, different strategies, different knowledge, but it is not acceptable to pull each other down just to get to the top. You should not throw bad words just to disseminate to people what you want to say.
You may be greater, skillful, and smarter than others, but how do you feel when you throw criticism at others? Did you feel satisfied and contented? Did you feel success from the things that you have done? Did you feel the victory? Did you feel happy while stepping other people down? Because seriously, if it's me, my conscience will be clawing in my mind like a monster and won't gonna let me fall asleep.
We are not perfect. But some built a huge wall of ego and strong grounds that no matter what words are thrown at them, they won't gonna let other people cut the high ladder of pride of them. Even if they step into other people's shoes, stab other people's back, ruin other people's stature, just to achieve what they want to achieve.
Learning is a continuous process, and committing and learning from mistakes is a part of it. However, the mistake is just an error and which is natural to humans, but if we fail to correct the error, it becomes a mistake.
But in some cases, other people's first impression lasts, and the first judgment lasts. We may commit mistakes now, but I believe that we all know how to correct them without making things complicated. And not all sinners will remain sinners forever. But those who are committing mistakes and do not learn anything from them are the real idiots.
There is always a second chance anyway because our life isn't really meant to be safe, to be perfect, we are meant to commit mistakes, and face obstacles in life. And it is from our errors, and our faults that we grow, we gain lessons, wisdom, and truly live.
It is not committing mistakes and errors the real issue here, it is how we respond to errors that counts. If you want to correct an error, do it in the right way, be professional, be a human.
Admit and correct your mistakes, learn your lessons, forgive, forget, move on, and get back up again.
Both sides committed mistakes, so both sides should learn the lessons.
I've been a toxic person, my virtual friends know it. I kept minding other people's works, comparing articles A and B, complaining about the system, etc. I did errors and mistakes and hurt others, but I admitted my mistakes, asked for an apology, and tried not to commit the same mistakes again. Because that is what we should do, to avoid further hitches and destructions, and to have a peaceful mind. Above all, it's so unhealthy being a toxic person, it will only compromise our whole well-being, and most importantly, we will only lose the people that have been part of our lives already.
Thanks for your time.

Yes, Mistakes are part of life. Some of us feel so down when we commit mistakes that we are too hard on ourselves but mistakes are normal. It is important for us to commit mistakes to see and learn more important things. What we just have to do is to learn from our experiences. Experience is the best teacher they say but I think its the reflection of our experiences that is the best teacher. If we don't ponder and reflect on our experiences we won't be able to learn
