Make peace

"Looking back," Christina said over the phone, "there were certainly many milestones in my life."

Any honest look back will recall several things one wishes one would have done differently.

It doesn't help to dwell on those things one did or didn't do in the past.As a family acquantaince said: at that time, you did the very best you could, given your knowledge and experience. You have the benefit of a few years' experience you now, that's why you can see how you might have done things differently.

I always try to come to terms with my past mistakes through grace, accepting them as poignant markers from which I can learn something valuable for the present and future.
