Everyone makes mistakes, it just takes a strong soul to admit you were wrong; Either for something you said or that you did. Not everyone can be that strong though, many people continuously walk through life still believing that their mistake isn’t a real mistake.
Throughout life you are gonna make continuous mistakes, you aren’t human if you don’t but sometimes these mistakes can make you lose someone really close to you. Sometimes things that seem insignificant can be a huge thing to the other person that you wronged. I have learned that sometimes people cannot admit their wrongdoings and sometimes you just have to let go of them and the issues. Criminals who knew what they did was wrong have admitted their mistakes and have been better people since. People who bully others and hurt others sometimes can see the light of their mistakes and notice they need to fix themselves. Things like that are what admitting your mistake is. It doesn’t have to be getting salvation from the person you wronged, it could be fixing yourself and not ever doing the same thing again. Mistakes though are what make most people flourish in life and be better.
