I set a new modern record for NOT going deer
hunting. I hunted 3 times this entire
season. On my last hunt I missed a nice
buck. What makes this noteworthy is that
I was sitting in a shooting house, with a good rest for my rifle. What makes this noteworthy is that the buck
was standing still within 50 yards of where I sat.
A couple of days later, it dawned on me that I had
made plenty of mistakes over my 50 years of hunting, and even more mistakes
over my 67 years of living. But, as I
read in a book this past autumn, mistakes aren’t so bad—IF you learn from
them. I even penned a Deer and Deer
Hunting magazine piece on the topic of learning from our mistakes.
We all make mistakes, the question is, am I learning
from my mistakes, or just repeating them over and over.
How about you?

ReplyDeleteYepper Craig, Pain has a G^d-given purpose. Pain tells us something is wrong in our body...and it can help us learn. Blessings, brother.
