young and stupid .

How naive I was 20 years ago, 5 years ago, just this morning.

To assume that I have the answers when I haven’t even scratched the surface.

As if when trying to prove that I’m better, I stumble once again.

No doubt I look back; but I refuse to stop. And I only look back to make sure I don’t land myself in the same predicament.

Sometimes it’s a fall, other times it’s a misstep. In some less common situations; it’s landing face first in concrete. Those moments require consequential healing.

On a more rare occasion; I’ve stumbled so silly; I’ve made a fool out of myself, that stings!

But when I sit and recap, I recognize my ignorance; I open up the candy bar 🍫 stuff my face with sugar and read the wrapper out loud “Sorry, this wrapper is not a winner, try again”

😡 Trying again
