I had one of those slap-in-the-face, humbling realizations today that reminded me that I'm not nearly as perfect as I seem to think I am. I am far too judgemental of others. Despite the fact that I go around saying that you should live your life the way you want to, I judge others if they don't live the way I expect them to...I'm such a hypocrite. If I've ever done anything or said anything that made you feel inferior because I didn't approve, please disregard it and accept my sincere apology. I know for a fact that I've done this to more than one person. What is it that makes people think that they are so much better than others? Maybe it's the fact that I'm really a very insecure person so any personal triumph I manage to obtain I cling onto and refuse to let go. You know the phrase "blinded by your own ambition?" (at least I think that's a phrase...could be wrong).

I guess the only thing I can do now is to just learn from the experience and move on. But I can't pretend like it's not going to affect my life and relationships permanently.  Lol, this reminds me of a quote from one of my favorite books Anne of Green Gables: "Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it." This will be my mantra.  I hope Karma wasn't paying too much attention to the last couple of weeks...
