When I started using Pen{Biro} in my primary school, and I
made a mistake, I would try hard to erase it.
Sometimes I use chalk, but it later reappears. So I began to
use saliva, it worked only to leave holes in
my book. My teachers then used to beat me for being
outrageously dirty. But all I tried to do was
cover my errors. One day, a kind hearted teacher called me
aside.
"Hello dear" , anytime you make a mistake, just cross it and
move on. Trying to erase it would only damage your book".
"But, I don't want people to see my mistake and laugh at
me", I protested.
"Trying to erase it will make more people know about your
mess, and the stigma is for life"
Have you made a mistake, cross it and move on. Take your
mistakes as a philosophy of life, leave it there and move on.
Don't try to create more irreparable errors by trying within
your power to erase it.
To err is human. Just put all your mistakes in the hands of
Almighty God, He will surely be with you because He's
the only One that is perfect!..take care.
