Someone who has made mistakes, <br />And has admitted them... <br />Whether publicly, <br />Or in private conversation... <br />Has much more credibility, <br />Than someone who hides flaws. <br />With pretense. <br />And a shallowness condensed, <br />Behind a self righteous stance to convince... <br />They are squeaky clean! <br />We are all human beings. <br />And if anyone denies, <br />They've done nothing to regret in their entire life... <br />Either lies, <br />Or an introduction to truth has not been made. <br />And if it was... <br />They would deny it anyway! <br />Anyone committed to truth, <br />Should not be held accountable <br />For others who are not. <br />Or even to those who are! <br />How many lives can one person live at one time? <br />Especially if one is trying to live the one given, <br />Correctly!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
