Moderation
To much of anything can be dangerous. The problem we have here in America is that we don’t know where the middle of the road is concerning most issues. Lets take eating as an example. Ther are very few resturants that actually serve the accurate portion sizes. The majority of the time what is put on our plates is two and some time three times the the serving size. If you don’t believe me, the next time you buy a soft drink or a bag of chip flip it over and read the nutrietional information on the on the back and you will see that the package is always more than one serving size. What else in life do we engage in that amounts to more than what is appropriate. Moderation is defined as the quality of being moderate; restraint; avoidance of extremes or excess. So moderation is not just for the amout of food we take in but for every area of life.

What Have We Learned From Our Mistakes
Mistakes are what I consider to be the building blocks of life. Now let’s be clear about the kind of mistakes I ‘m talking about. When we choose to ingage in things that we know we are not supposed to be, then that is not what I consider to be a mistake. That would be stupid. Although we can learn from acts of stupidity that we all frequently engage in, but what we are talking about today are honest efforts to get things done that for some reason turn out completely wrong. Whoops, that would be a mistake. When things like this happens a process of profound learning takes place. Profound because when it happens this way there is a level of unexpected loss and or pain. The loss and pain creates a powerful memory that greatly helps us aviod the same type of behavior in the future.

Traveling in a circle always breing us back to the same place in life just as making the same mistakes over and over brings us back to that same pain.
