On Making Mistakes

"The sages do not consider that making no mistakes is a blessing. They believe, rather,
that the great virtue of man lies in his ability to correct his mistakes and continually to make a new man of himself."
~Wang Yang-Ming

The Tragedy Is...

Not what happened,
but what was lost.


Not losing the way,
but finding a new way
untraveled.


Not stolen passion,
but aroused concupiscense.


Not loss of love,
but dilution of confidence.


A can of worms unsealed.
