Open Mouth, Insert Foot

Good gravy!  The last couple weeks have been bRuTaL as far as putting my foot in my mouth.  They were all pretty minor comments, but as I reflected on them later I couldn’t help but do this…

Do you ever have days like that?  The other person may not have thought anything of it, but you still WiSh you could take back the awkward, hurtful or unnecessary words that were spoken.

The truth of the matter is, if you are HuMaN and if you are going to be social, you are going to say things that you regret.  I guess you could avoid these situations by isolating yourself, never meeting new people or no longer interact with your peers, but that wouldn’t be LiViNg-It now would it?

Next time you catch yourself banging your head against your desk, remember that even though you made a human mistake, it is still better to reach out to others versus doing nothing at all.
