       Then there are the mistakes we make. We make a wrong move. Originally, we thought we were making a right move. I mean, after all, all moves we make are based on a judgment, an evaluation, of what it is we decide to do. Sometimes we have tunnel vision, or we overlooked something, or we just didn’t consider all the things we should have. We’ve made a mistake. An accident has occurred, and it’s our fault. Depending on our level on inner-self, we react in different ways. We may get angry and upset, and be full of guilt. We say to ourselves, “I should have know better. If only I would have done that instead. If only I had waited and not done anything!” Or, if we are on the positive side we say, “Gee, I made a mistake. But I’m not going to blow this up out of proportion. Life is more than any one mistake, and I am too.” Finally, we have those things that come to us that our outside of our control. There it is. That’s the big word, control, and some of us have a dreadful thought when we imagine a loss of control.
