I was listening to the radio in my car today, and kept picking out lyrics that I wanted to put in here, to fuel my penitent attitude, but I started trying to remember so many songs and groups, it finally came to me: People screw up. That's all there is to it. You feel bad after, you want to do anything to make it right, but it's unavoidable- you're going to fuck shit up.

Hah... I'm dumb for not coming to this conclusion so much earlier. I mean, seriously, my life would be so much less... penitent. I could stop saying sorry and stop worrying about how people were affected, because they would be over it as soon as they screw something up. It would be a wonderful cycle.

But I never would. "You're the only one who apologizes. And means it. That's one of the things I love you for." *shakes head* Yes, a glutton for punishment, I know. But a penitent one, at least.

Anyway... I jsut kind of sat back and stopped watching the road- geez, it was for all of 1/2 a second!- to ponder the course of this thought. And I came to a satisfying conclusion. People will always screw things up for one reason or another, it's the person who can move on and grow from it that is the stronger, bigger person. No one's perfect, give up the search right now- you'll never find them.

And if you did, you would hate them- they'd make you look bad all the time. haha
