Just because you're hurt doesn't mean you'r broken

If you regret some of the decisions you made in the past, don't be so hard on yourself.
At that time, you did your best with the knowledge that you had.
At that time, you did your best with the experience that you had.
Some of your decisions might of been coping skills and a time when you didn't know what you know today.

If you were to make those decisions with the wisdom you have now,
you would choose differently.
So give yourself a break and forgive yourself.
and
When sometimes we are hurt—physically or emotionally—
we are convinced that it is the end,
that our happiness is over,
that we will never feel wholeness or joy again.
We think we are permanently broken, but we are not.
You must keep striving and surviving with courage and hope.
Never give up, and never surrender!
Strong we can always be.
But please hang in there.
Hold your head high.
Have faith in God.
Please don’t give up.
Time and experience has a wonderful way to make us realize that we prosper, grow and learn to make better choices today, for ourselves and those we care for.
