What Have I Done?

I thank you, Mr Mikhail Gorbachev with your meaningful words, "Sometimes it's difficult to accept, to recognise one's own mistakes, but one must do it. I was guilty of overconfidence and arrogance, and I was punished for that."  

I am guilty too, Mr Gorbachev.  

That statement makes me to pause for thought - "What have I done?".  What good have I done for myself?  What have I done to make this life meaningful?  What could I have done better?

This is a reset button question.  I should ask it every now and then, as much as I can.  It is a wake up call to ask myself whether there is anything that has occurred to me that has opened my eyes.  

A question that I should ponder and to ask myself is there any regret on what I have done?  It is so that I can have a profound realization about life in general.

To ask the question constantly will provide me with significant realization.  It will help me to pause and think before executing any actions and before verbalizing words that I might regret later.  Likely, the more I ask, I will face with the truth whether my knowledge is always right?

Realization helps me to carry out worldly interactions with ease.  The more I am aware of my actions, the more I will come to realization that I have to be kind, to be nice and to be considerate.  I will not only think for my well being but others too.  Hopefully, it will also make me to be more empathetic.

Nothing stays forever.  Nothing lasts forever.  No matter how well I plan, nothing will remain the same forever.  Nothing is absolute and certain.  My experience as a human being is limited.  

All I need to do is to be open to information.  To follow the most direct sources as possible that are true to my heart.  And, to see things that work for me.

I have to remind my mind against perfectionism, in how everything has to be true.  Everything that I see, feel, hear, taste and smell has divine messages.  They are my lessons.  

When I do not know much about anything, then the only thing I can do is try my best right now.  Life is what I make of it.

What have I done?  What should I do?

I love you.  I am sorry.  Please forgive me.  Thank you.
