For My Mistakes In Life Poem by Francis Duggan

For my mistakes in life i only have myself for to blame
And for everyone else it has to be the same
But from our mistakes we should learn as the wise one does say
Though some slow to learn it does seem this way
Blaming others for your mistakes is not a good idea
It is a cop out it does seem to me
But some people are shackled by the victim mentality
Suppose this is their way of seeking sympathy
We all do experience the ups and downs of life
And most of us do know about inner strife
But for our own mistakes we must take responsibility and try to learn as we live
For to forgive others yourself you must forgive
Blaming others for your mistakes friends for you never gain
Better to learn from them than about others complain.
