MY BIGGEST MISTAKE
By: CS KILIGTOTHEBONES
In life we make mistakes, but we need to learn from it to be a better person. We have to admit our mistakes and have the courage to correct it. We sometimes fail, but we have to rise every time we fall. Always remember that mistakes can be a valuable life lesson. I remember the time I’ve made my mistake. I was still a Junior High School student that time. I always thought I was a positive person. I suddenly realized that I was wrong. I was overthinking about it and I was blaming myself. I wanted to kill myself that time, but I was thankful to God for always guiding me. I was Grade 7 when I met a girl, the eventually she became my friend. I was happy being with her so I thought she would help me every time I fall, but I was wrong. It was February 25, when I faced a problem about my family and studies. My sister fought at that same time too. I was failing in one of my subjects. I went to the boarding house of my friend to share my problems. I was about to knock at the door when two boys came out from her room. “Who are they?” I asked my friend but she was just smiling at me. Then she asked me about my problem. I continued to share my problem even though I was shocked about her true behaviour. She was about to share her thought but someone knocked at the door. Two men, two girls and two boys entered the room. They brought liquor and soft drinks with them. My friend introduced me to them then they invited me to drink with them. I was speechless that time, I never expected her to drink liquor. She advised me to forget about my problem and to drop out from school. I was convinced by her so I never went home and didn’t attend school. I stayed in her lodging house for a week. Then I sensed that she doesn’t want me staying with her anymore, so I went home. My family was very worried for me. Then, I realized that my friend’s advice for me about my family’s love and studies is wrong. I realized my mistake and asked forgiveness from my parents.
