A Lesson Learned Perhaps Too Late

Life is about love. It's not about who wins an argument. It's not about who is more right than wrong. Sometimes, you've got to back down because the argument isn't worth the pain that it inflicts in the lives of those you love the most. My biggest failures in life have been born because of my inability to own my wrong-doings and respect the pain that my wrong-doing has caused in the lives of others. There are times when you cannot and should not attempt to explain away your shortcomings because, simply, there is no excuse good enough to erase the hurt that you've caused. And to argue at that point... is tragic.
