Mistakes are there to be learnt from. They are part of our journey through life and are what help to shape us. How we respond to them will tell how they shape us. I also know people who will try to bend the world around them in order to justify their mistakes and it's sad because they aren't learning anything from them and will likely keep repeating those mistakes.
What would have been your action if you accidentally killed someone or hurt somebody?
A horrific thought. It's hard to know whether I could ever recover from the guilt of something like that and I wouldn't want to experience it to find out. My uncle hit a child who ran into the road with his car. I don't recall if they said whether the child survived or not. He couldn't have avoided them, but he also couldn't apologise to the family and find out if the child was okay, because they would blame him and it would make things worse for them. I'm not sure if I could bring myself to drive again if something like that happened to me.
They are tiny parts that make us whole that is why our actions after each mistake made matters.
Yes, It sure is very sad.
Horrific, yes! I have witnessed a lot of that and seen the person walk away with bribes to the law enforcement, and it just got me wondering, what would be their next step?
Yes, him being there would make things worse, but he still has to face his truth. To heal, to move forward and to forgive himself for his actions, and that begins when he meets up with the parents. It won't be easy. It'll probably take him to places he never thought, but it'll be nice knowing he tried. Not for me, but for himself and for the parents too.
I don't want to imagine myself in that situation, too, cos I don't think I'll survive the guilt that would come next.
