Mistakes and failure are simply part of our imperfect perfection. For happiness to exist, every now and then we have to fail and be upset so that we appreciate our happiness that much more. I believe that everything happens for a reason, for the better or the worse. What's happened has happened, so why get bummed out about it. More often than not, you'll live. So why get too bogged down by it? Hakuna Matata (it means no worries, for the rest of your days). I'm not saying I'm perfect and that I come to this conclusion immediately though. At first yeah I'll be upset. But every cloud has a silver lining. Once you get over the initial hump of becoming aware of that lining, things are smooth sailing.
