My father was complaining these days because he had thrown something important years ago and now have to use them promptly.He used to own many but never care about them and he thrown them all.He felt terrible now but I was very fortunate to learn a lesson before I meet such thing.
During my three-year school time, I've made so many mistakes.Once I have edited a speech in a beautiful fonts with WORD.It looked nice but when I print it out in the print shop it looked really weird.The font came in all shapes and sizes.Then I knew the print shop had only a few simple types of fonts.Though was a bit disappointed I felt still pleased because I don't need to waste time on adjusting the fonts next time.
Another time when our chinese teacher published the exam papers online and askes us to print out by ourselves, i went directly to the print shop without having a look at the documents.when it printed out I found its font too big that I gained a book thick papers… What a waste of paper!I should have edited them properly at home or just told the technician to change the font size before printing.Though I felt so guilt that i said sorry to the papers, I'm glad I knew it that day and I'm now more careful than before.
those are all about printing. I've made many other mistakes but felt sad only for one time.I'd try to resist the negative side and think about the positive side.
what will you do when you make mistakes and what have your learned from your mistakes?

To learn from our mistakes so we can be a better person after.
Learning from mistakes could make us smarter and stronger so we could avoid same mistakes in the future.
Life is full of mistakes as we travel in our journey of life wherein we will learn a lot.
There is nothing wrong to commit mistake as long as we know how to stand up again while learning from this mistakes.

Many chinese kids are afraid of mistakes.So am I formerly.My teachers changed me a lot that I learn to think about why I made it and how to deal with it instead of runing from it.My teacher said there is nothing wrong to make mistake(like you said)but it's bad to repeat it for so many times.The most important thing is to learn something from it.Then these mistakes are valuable.

I think each and everyone of us had committed a mistake sometime in our lives. They may be trivial things or life-changing. But no matter how small or grave a mistake, we should always treat them as part of life's education. I myself had made tons of mistakes, and I've not only learned from most of them, but I had also gained some added wisdom out of those mistakes. Although I must admit that there are still a few mistakes that for some reason I keep on repeating. I guess I still have to learn from those.

I still keep on repeating many mistakes just like you.And it is mostly because I do not reflect on those mistakes when I make them.It's not a good habbit.I should turn it over each time I make a mistake.Not only can I adjust my mood but also have it at heard so I won't do it again!

We all make mistake, human as we are, we are not perfect. We love each other not because we are perfect but because of our imperfection and how tend to bond and share it with the one we love...
Mistakes/Problems/Conflicts/Issues/ whatever we called it, one thing is for sure, we should never give up and we shall continue reaching our goal in life for the better. We must keep moving forward for the future. We can never return to the past. So basically we just have to be vigilant and proactive in everything that we do.
