Mistakes

I’ve made sure to avoid politics after studying for a degree in it, and I avoided news after training as a journalist. Instead, I’ve concentrated on the personal, to have unconditional positive regard for individuals. To believe we’re all trying our best, even when we could act better. To know we all make mistakes, and while many of them are a valuable lesson, there’s still the burning blush of remembering my idiocy in my cheeks.
