What did you do?

and come back to learn of your "truth." Jasmine, the hardest thing in life is to admit when you are wrong and then to "fix" it...

I tell this to my children in the hospital all the time, no matter if they are here for a small hurt or the big "C" ...

I Define bravery as the following:

"To face what you fear, and to do what you must and what is right, despite your fear and pain...."

You did that by 1. private apologies
2. public apologies

Now to dream of who you wish to be, and make it so...you have the ability to form your character NOW and to be the architect of your future...don't let us down..we expect good things for your future, don't waist your obvious gift.

Thank God, you have just acheived another milestone in your life by asking for help, and accepting that our love for you.
Maybe not tomorrow, or next week but I have a feeling that you have just taken a huge step towards feeling better about yourself.
Post your poetry in the teens group if you wish, or send me a message anytime I will always find time to reply.

We are your extended family. Families forgive and forget. Thank you for writing this poem.

I want you to grow into a level headed young lady with the memory of this mistake as one that had given you a big life lesson. Maybe better it happened now than later, so that you don't have to spend more years thinking people don't care about you. They do. Not because they think you are ill, not because you have had a hard life, but because they see more in you that that;
a girl who is talented and kind and just wants to be loved.

Now that this is behind you, you have to become a girl/woman who is all those things, plus honest, loyal, and most of all true to yourself.

Don't let me down.

The beginning of this work had me in tears of saddness but ended in tears of joy! Bravo!!!!! :)

If any of us was perfect, had lived a perfect life without mess-ups of any kind, it would be one thing. But none of us is perfect, because we're all as human as...well, each other. I believe that if we choose to learn from our errors, regardless of how big or small they may be, we become better individuals. Our hearts grow and we acquire a stronger sense of right. So keep away from the word "final" and look forward, upward, and smile inward. A mistake doesn't negate all the wonderful things you are or have done. Ralph Waldo Emerson, one of the great philosophical writers, once said, "What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you." Nurture who you are inside, Jasmine, and who you become will need no apologies. We love you. :}

This NOT the beginning of the end! It is the beginning of a new beginning. You have already mostly paid the price...you confessed by typing this tough poem. You always end your messages to us by telling us you love us...so don't stop...keep proving it.
Love you...

I read it and think you have gotten taller, if not than you have grown in character.We all make mistakes and hopefully we learn from them.

Do the best you can for today that is all we can do, the past is behind us, and we have no power to change it.

Instead of looking in the mirror and only finding fault say positive and loving things about yourself, no need to say them out loud if you find it hard to do.True and lasting beauty comes from the inside and shines.

Keep up with your writing.This is a great release for all that is going on. You can look back on your writing and see your growth, which is always a good thing.

Thank you all for your kind comments. This was one of the hardest things I have written... It was difficult, but I own up to my mistake, and now I have to sit and admit there is a price that needs to be paid.
