We all mess up, doing something that we thought we never would. Those extra pounds we gained because we convinced ourselves that buying clothes with elastic in the waist was a good way to make sure our clothes were comfortable, when we wore our Assets. Our efforts went all in and we laid out everything and over exposed our hand, on that first date. Then, Bob decided that a good friend was all he needed. Steve Harvey is not the only one frowning on such behavior and Bob's reaction is the reason why.
The day your flabbergasted self took over your your assertive self, after a co-worker made an inconsiderate comment about your earrings, you really wanted to respond with a sarcastic statement like: It's a good thing your long hair always covers your ears. Or what about the time you missed your lunch date because you forgot to gas up before hitting the interstate and ended up parked behind the white line with your hazard lights on. You really wanted to go on that date too. Except by the time AAA showed up, your date had a already called and requested raincheck.
Face it, slipups are really out of our control. They seem to be an inevitable part of life's journey. We all will come to accept how true that statement really is once we do something that we wish we could take back. You couldn't avoid realizing it was true, after you swore at your daughter. You are now known as the the smoking sailor in your family. Cursing is not the worst thing to do in the world, so stop beating yourself up about it. Our shortcomings are the only thing that we have to reflect on during the introspection process.
In the name of those mistakes and misunderstandings that seem to follow us around like a lost dog, hunting a meal, here is a chance for you meet the creator of Boozy Mom, an Online Series dedicated to all the Moms who have accepted that their imperfection is a natural part of life. Keep in mind, a Boozy Mom is a state of mind and does not necessarily mean wasted Mom. After you are done enjoying these Boozy Moms you can do your nails and obsess over your daughters cute clothes or something.
Again, no matter what mistakes we make in life, beating ourselves up about it, will not change what happened. Our responsibility is to learn from our experiences while accepting that we are imperfect.
