A history of bad decisions

We live in a world fuelled by the decisions that we decide to make, whether this is by what career path we chose or what words or sentences we may string together. The fact is that sometimes we make decisions that could have negative consequences that when we made that decision we did not think about those particular consequences. The idea is that those decisions may begin to bring us down. Time is often wasted thinking about the what ifs, if we had made a different decision at that precise moment in time. I believe that every human being has their own history of bad decisions stored deep into our core like a catalogue. Other people will forget everyone else's catalogues but their own, their own catalogue will always be deep within their core and you will use it to always create a negative impact or perception of who you are due to the decisions that you have made, stored in your own personal catalogue.  Whilst, we all have the same process of being a human being that makes bad decisions or continual mistakes I must inform you that in no way does your history of bad decisions define who you are. We are only human and if we lived in a world where we are all programmed to simply be some strange perception of 'perfection', then we simply would not exist and there would be even more self loathing, self pity and self-esteem issues then there are in the current world we live in and I tell you that numbers already too high.  Also, our own personal history of decisions is not and should not ever be used against who you are as a person. If people have taken your catalogue and used that to decide what type of person you are, or the fact that they don't like what you've become due to those decisions that you've made then I am afraid they are someone that you should simply not allow in your life, they will be a bad decision. They don't know how you felt at the moment you made those decisions, what if you were grieving, had mental health issues or simply lost control does that ever give them the right to use your history of bad decisions against you? No, no it does not.  If you're ever down about being judged due to these particular string of factors, then I tell you this. Personally judgement is everywhere, it's in our blood, it's in own veins, its part of our human programming to survive upon planet earth. Have your opinion, but do not voice it out loud if this could lead to someone being judged for their own catalogue or adding another decision to their history. If you're 'friends' use this against you then I am sorry, but you do not need them. Do not waste the oxygen that you need to breathe in order to survive upon people who think it is okay to use your history of bad decision to conclude an assumption to your existence.
