Forgiveness

We make mistakes and we hurt people. We feel guilty because we did not mean to hurt them. But people are unpredictable. Sometimes they hold grudges. Sometimes they forgive us without even asking. But the reason it still is important to apologize is so that we can put the guilt and the past behind us. Needless to say, apologizing is hard. Getting over your ego, to tell someone that you were wrong, take guts. And asking for forgiveness, for something that you're ashamed of, takes courage.
So we wait for a chance; the right moment. But the problem with the "right moment" is that its just a fancy word for time. And that doesn't change the fact that we're all a little coward. So just pick any moment you're with them, gather five seconds of blind, selfless bravery and tell them that you're really, truly, sincerely sorry.

It Was My Fault!

There are times when we anticipate the wrong end. Times, when we make bad decisions, mistakes. And when they turn out  wrong, we go into denial 'cause we are afraid of being wrong. We defend ourselves and in fear, make ourselves believe a totally different version of truth that fits into our "story of righteousness".We explain to everyone how it wasn't our fault, how we were right and honestly start believing every bit of it. But what we forget is that we don't have to explain ourselves to anyone, we don't have to let people judge and label us as a bad person for the mistakes we have made and we definitely do not have to be right all the time. What we forget is that it is perfectly okay to be wrong.

The Perfect Moment

It is often said that if you really believe that you want something, then give it your best and wait for it, because it will give you pure happiness. But waiting for the right moment and the right opportunity is just stupid, because we can't always get what we want, no matter how hard we try. And even if we do embrace the things we don't want, we're often so lost in the belief that only what we want will make us happy, that we miss out the happiness that comes from the things-we-didn't-want.
So move on and grab the opportunities that do come your way, because that "right moment" may never come and you'll miss out the ones that do. Our perfect moments can only be perfect with the things we have. Cherish them. Because sometimes, what you think you don't want can be the best thing for you.

In The City Laid In Yellow Bricks

In the city laid in yellow bricks,
The silver sand that seams it to the sea,
The sea, so blue and resting so lull,
The copper sunset that wraps the day,
The palms that line it up in green
And the people skinned in rich gold,
Paint me pictures of a thousand memories,
Memories of the moments that I have lived,
Flashes of the sorrows that I have buried
And of dreams, that I wish to breathe,
In the city that I call home,
In the city of chaos where I find peace,
In the city laid in yellow bricks,
Is where my heart belongs
