Mistakes were made...

Throughout my life I have had many successes, and many failures. I have made good decesions, and I have made very bad ones. However, no matter how hard I try to balance the two it always seems as though the mistakes far out weigh the successes; especially in times when those mistakes take hold. I suppose we do really learn from everything that we do whether it be the right thing or the wrong thing, yet at times it seems like the cost of the lesson is far more than I could ever bear.
