Day 10?

Aug 25, 2010 19:50

What's the worst mistake you've ever made in your life and how did you get past it?

What a fucking a question.  And I have no goddamn idea.  I've made so many mistakes and the more I think about it, the more I've beaten the word "mistake" to death; to the point where it's definition becomes foggy to me.  When does a mistake becoming just...something stupid.  Stubbing a toe, cutting a fingernail to short, paper cut, accidentally using shower gel on your hair and shampoo on your body...
The WORST mistake, though.  That's a big one.  What would it take to make the worst mistake of...anyone's life?  Long term negligence?  Dropping your baby? Watching Inception when everyone raves it's a great movie but then you see it and there's no real fucking ending and you want your goddamn money back?  
I don't know, I mean I've become pretty depressed and angry.  I don't know if it's a mistake that I felt that way, surely some of those times those emotions were totally warranted.  But is it a mistake to act on those emotions?  Is it "right" to hold them in instead?  Sometimes when I'm depressed...I don't want to become happy again.  I feel like it will belittle my intense depressed feelings, and that I will just go back to my droning, micromanaged life.  Sometimes when I'm depressed I fee like...I don't know, like it's real.  It's ra  I'm not filtering what I say, the feelings I hurt, who I might offend, or however much I sensationalize an experience when thinking about it in retrospect... when actually experiencing it wasn't nearly as severe.  I know those feelings are totally irrational and illogical... but...that's what I start to believe.  ...Is that a mistake? 
Anyways, something potentially bad could have happened between today and five days ago.  Seems like nothing bad is going to happen now though.  Thank...god.
