Proud Of My Mistakes

I'm not proud of my mistakes

But really I feel proud

That I learned something from it

Which makes me a better person.

I'm a little selfish and impatient

But I'm proud to be like that

In the world of jealousy.

I'm courageous enough

To commit mistakes,

As it helps me to

Overcome disappointment and despair.

As Alexander Pope said

"To err is human

To forgive is divine."
