Forgetting that I matter. 28 years of marriage, raising two children, holding it all down playing the role of mother & wife – I lost myself. Now, husband happy and working abroad, children both graduated from college and happy doing “their” thing – here I sit…I forgot that I mattered.

Thanks, Jessica. I appreciate your views. In reading my work, you’ll note that I believe in seeing things clearly, but doing so with as much self-love, patience, tolerance and forgiveness as possible. I share these “mistakes” not to beat myself up or to be critical or hard on myself, but to help explore how all humans make “missteps” in life. If we can acknowledge these missteps quickly and revise our course, we’ll certainly grow and expand and move towards a more fulfilling and joyful life. I don’t invest my time in “regret” actually, because I believe that everything that happens in our lives is potentially for our greatest and highest good. So for me, the key is to see how we’ve tripped up, pick ourselves with love and care, and continue on our path towards what we long for. In the end, if we refuse to look at our “mistakes,” I believe we can suffer more than is necessary. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for this thought provoking website- much appreciated. I am troubled by the name 52 \\"mistakes\\" as I fear this angle for self exploration is so judgmental.
What if you called it 52 \\"lessons\\"\\\’ learned- re-framed it.

Sometimes I think we wear ourselves down by labeling our regrets as mistakes as though there is a right and wrong way of learning the wisdom that only comes with a life lived. It looks like a teacher grading a project with red ink instead of a wise woman sharing the lessons she has learned on the road to wisdom.
