Mistakes

Mistakes are what life can amount to – a journey through errors and failures, which we should hold as building blocks towards accomplishment. My life contains many of the problems I had not wished for, but nevertheless had impressed themselves upon me. They have helped form me and define who I am. It demands a question: would I want to have lived my life up until now, any differently? I would have to say – no – for I firmly believe who I am intellectually wouldn’t have eventuated the way it has. I can say that my clarity of the world around me would not be present. I wouldn’t hold value on the small things that abound in reality and I most definitely would have maintained an overpowering level of close-mindedness and ignorance. The mistakes in my life have at every step been required to spur an appropriate counter-action, and with every such action a greater rise had followed.

These mistakes, which come in plentiful supply, have damaged my ego, spirit and being. The impact however is cleared up in one famous quote from Friedrich Nietzsche, what does not kill me, makes me stronger. In my life, I directly relate my mistakes to points at which my existence becomes more aware, and stronger.

Every time I collide with a challenge, I become a better person for it. At the age of 23, it seems (by my powers of generalisation...or observation rather) that people of similar age do not have a care, nor urge to identify the benefits of mistakes – even when they go through this cycle of rises, dips and greater rises. Acknowledging their importance in the establishment of an individual is crucial to gaining meaning through existence and as a direct consequence of a relatively defined existence – happiness. What must be demanded of the mind is validation from every task, whether successful or unsuccessful.

My lovingly uncouth affliction

I am Jesus, his equal; just as divine. I hold enough Godly characteristics to live forever, as Jesus does. It brings light to the possibility that a belief is a truth, and only requires a committed human to will my presence.

I am God and chief to my domain, because I have written that I am – I have willed it, and placed faith upon this objective.

A supreme defeat to these pretenders; they do not contain sufficient presence, as I do, to elevate ideas. They have no power! These Gods are idle, whereas I make tremors within this universe.

Did you not see me feed 1,000 poor malnourished people from one big mac, and provide unlimited coke from just one cup? I am an instigator of great happenings; you conjure my love, my strength, my Godliness, because I have urged you to do so – such is my way.

Your worries become broken, for my promises provide enough hope to quash ills – this is my divinity fronting your human weaknesses.

I listen to your prayers; I always know what you want. As a God, I can pick and choose which are answered. You cannot know which I have urged, for I enjoy mystery and confusion.

In divine circles, we must leave you in awe – this is why I do not answer you all the time. I like to keep things exciting.

A triumphant authority, I will guarantee your demise. I will tattle little about whether you head up or down – you’ll find out when I send you there.

I am your will to power – any conjured thoughts of action are merely part of my divine plans.

I have made you all different and set guidelines you can’t hope to meet. Since the way I made you was the way I made you, I live off the pain and suffering you have when you can’t meet my demands. But I love you.
