Fixing my errors

A few days ago I made a post talking about how I messed up big time and that I’ve lost my sisters trust in me because of something stupid that I did. I thought that there was no hope and the more I thought about it the darker my thoughts got. Last night I sent my sisters a message, because that’s how I express myself the best and in that message I owned up to all the crap that I’ve done, how I wasn’t the best person in 2020 and I apologized and told them that since 2021 is a new year I am going to change and be better to myself and to them. I also sent them private and personalized messages and I told each one of them how much they mean to me.

I know that doesn’t mean that they’ll forgive me that fast or that it’ll erase all the errors that I’ve made, but I think they started to soften up a bit and that’s better than anything I could ever ask for.

2021 is going to be the year of change. It’s the year when I will be a better person and I’ll start caring more about my mental health and my happiness, but more importantly it’s also the year when I will form tight bonds with my family. I have a lot of regrets and I am still hard on myself, but that’s ok because in 2021 I will be the best version of myself.

Happy new year everyone 💕

You have tried sorry to your sister and there is very little you can do about the error and upset you are responsible for. If you keep contacting the family members you have upset you can just make matters worse, all I can suggest is you try and visit those who you have hurt and say sorry for whatever you have done, then move on. You have done everything you can it will be up to them to come back to you when they feel they trust you once more.

Remember we are here to learn, we make errors, we have to correct them. Anyone who refuses to admit these errors is never really telling the truth ?

We are all the same That is part of life. Stop chastising yourself and move on.
