Making Mistake is good or bad?

Mistakes are one of those things which are considered bad in life. And especially it’s considered horribly bad when someone else has done it.

Why do people think this way? And What does their perspective represent?

No one can deny one fact that every human make mistakes at some point in their life. But, everyone has forgotten that every mistake can not be as bad as you think or assume.

As you know, every coin has two sides and represents two different perspectives.

So, what’s stopping us from understanding a simple thing that we can also have two different perspectives to see or observe or understand that particular act of life where we are accusing or blaming or questioning the person who made a mistake!

I know, you will counter me with the question that what if someone made those mistakes intentionally? Or What if their mistake is just not a silly mistake but a massive blunder? And Why should I suffer from it or even consider understanding whatever they did? Or Why should I waste my energy to understand where they stand at this point in life when I can just ignore it or forget about it and move on in my life & concentrate on other things?

Well, you should at least try to understand their point of view. Because, it’s a circle of life, “Whatever goes, comes back” and most importantly, you may not realize the effect it had made in your life no matter how big or how small it was. Maybe right now, it’s not you and it’s someone else in your life who has made a mistake but, in the future that person can be you, who intentionally or unintentionally has made a mistake and hurt someone.

Would you not want to be forgiven by the person who’s hurt by you?

I can understand that sometimes it’s very hard to think from others perspectives. But, everyone deserves a second chance, even you. And when you are willing to give someone that second chance, try to be fair-minded about it.

The person who makes mistakes is also the person who is on a path of development, learning, understanding, and betterment. Maybe that person was in a different frame of mind or in a different environment or at a dark place in life when he/she made those mistakes but, remember you can also be there at some point in your life. So, treat them the way you would like to be treated by others. Making mistakes doesn’t always make you bad, they can make you a better person for others as well as for your own self.
