Erasing Bad Mistakes

Have you ever wished you could erase a bad mistake from your past?
Something that you wish you could forget and move from really fast?
Nothing they have speak of or says lingers with any type of grace,
Yet you are stuck hearing it and it screaming in your face.

Typically their words surround nothing but cheating or lust,
Or eyes bulging forward at anything with an **** or bust,
When can we shut these people out of our decent world we want,
Instead they hover like some sort of scary spook and haunt.

I am glad to hear you are supporting somehow who is having a rough time. I, too, helped my best friend who's husband left her for another woman. I found that the best way to offer support was to refocus attention to her future, not her past. We talked about things like hope, love, letting go... You may want to consider writing poems of hope, new love, new life, friendship, mended hearts to help her towards a healthier way of thinking and getting her to move forward and let go. Love ya!

I'm also a bit confused as to why you are writing from other people's points of view. You certainly have a BIG well of life experiences to draw from, and I think if you delve into that, concentrate on that, then just maybe you will get what you want and get published. And if someone is suicidal, my choice wouldn't be to poke at her and her choices--it is all far too sad and those who are emotionally devasted deserve some time to recover and kindness. I'd like to visit again soon-lets make plans.

Hi- Good Morning. What a wet week. I need to pick up one of those plastic covers for the stroller today. The one I have doesn't fit and my girl gets wet. Hey hon, I'd prefer that you don't deal with this stuff on my postings, okay? So far, I have been treated fairly by everyone here at P.S. I won't be getting involved in other people's private lives, as it doesn't concern me. Other people have a right to make their own mistakes, my view, and I won't be giving my two cents.

his x wife knows he is behind certain accounts here cyndi, and i send her links..and she knows it is him..so dont believe the cheating postings he puts up does not make a woman cry..it does..and she learned nothing from his mistakes..i should have sent this to you via email, i am going to send you the full story via email..

he was lurking in my forum under a fake account, delivered by the prophecies God told me, then he dropped his x wifes name. and voila, I hunted her down online, found her..and sure enough the whole story was laid out for me to know..so dont believe that the adultery postings cyndi does not affect anyone..his x wife reads them here too..

do you think she has become wiser cyndi from his affairs and moving 500 miles away? this is why I do not disregard some postings..not everyone becomes wiser after finding out their husband had about 3 or more affairs and moves that distance away..she is very scarred..appreciates my emails too..very much so :)

anyways cyndi, this man was lurking in my forum, and I tracked down his x wife to discover his story..so dont believe that everyone learns from mistakes while she is 500 miles away and suicidal..reading both my sites and speaking to me via email

a woman I speak to through email cyndi is suicidal and has been left by a man from this site who had many affairs..he lives in new zealand..he moved 500 miles away from his family...and now she is running around alone with 3 kids while he sees them maybe once a month..he moved to the second island..so not everyone learns from mistakes..she tried to commit suicide when he served her divorce papers

Actually, this one made me shiver. I once had a bad relationship turn into a bad break up- and he actually stalked me. I mean that I would show up at work where I had to spend time outside and he was there, leaning against a tree, just watching me all the time. He followed me and once put his hands around my neck and told me that I shouldn't live without him. That being said, I think that mistakes make us who we are. Maybe instead of erasing them we could embrace them :-) We become stronger,wise
