Mistakes

There are some mistakes, that are just simply mistakes. They are isolated, caused by a thoughtless moment or an oversight. These mistakes generally have consequences that rarely go beyond a single day, they may leave behind a bruised ego and a feeling of embarrassment, but overall they occur and time and life go on. But there are other mistakes, that are inexcusable, that change the path of your life. They steer you in a direction that you never thought you would go, leaving behind a path of disappointment and anger. Those mistakes are grave and if you make one, you can find your way back. Perhaps the Gods will react favorably to the fourth and fifth mistakes as well. But there is a point, when all your mistakes culminate into a life, and that life is not the one you thought you would lead or the life you wanted to have. It simply becomes a life of regrets.
