Have you ever said anything and afterwards thought ....
"Wouldn`t it be nice to just go back and wipe the slate clean"
You know... just make it like it had never happened lol

Yep sad
Yes but now I try to keep :gagged: but it's hard at times. lol

yep I am always putting my foot in it,and I always state the bleeding obvious rolleyes
yep...... sad
Yes but it was cpmpletely unintended - misinterpreted and utterly blown up out of proportion.
So I decided that you can't go through life trying to avoid things like that. Accept it and move on - I say.
I'm not thick skinned - honestly - just wise after the event!! wink

What's that saying...
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Pretty much covers it. :wink:

Works for me :thumbup:
The past can only come back to hurt you if you let it or if you consciously keep dragging it back up.
Can't change the past, you can only change the future, so the best thing to do is leave the past where it belongs, in the past and chalk it up to experience.
yep, and i really should find a few hours spare to try and fix it again
yep redface can b way too hot headed at times
Not so much what I've said but it came from someone else and the resulting fallout spoiled a lovely friendship and I took the blame sad Despite efforts to make amends, the other person doesn't want to know and won't even acknowledge me. Nothing else I can do :(
sorry to hear about that sassy ,perhaps in time things will get better.
and yes i have said things without thinking first ,usually if i feel something is'nt right i just say so. some people take this as me being arrogant and stoppy (this applies to a very small number of medical professionals who dont like being questioned about things) but if i dont understand fully or am uncertain then i tend to ask questions.
I have a problem. In conversation, things that pass through my mind frequently come out of my mouth. It has upset a lot of folk ovr the years and I have had to get used to that.
In terms of going back and wiping the slate I tend to find that the kind of people I dont want to offend seem to be the kind of people who dont take offence. So no, even with my issue I dont feel the need to wipe the slate clean.
If you are feeling playful one day, play my candour game. Instead of thinking something then being polite just say what you think. Its really good fun.

And be accused of making personal attacks?! dunno
It seems that saying what you think is frowned upon though! wink

Maybe, maybe not. It used to bother me but not now. It's made me realise that I shouldn't take people at face value.
Slates being wiped clean? Nah, our mistakes are what make us.
Or, as Edith once warbled,
Non Je Ne Regrette Rien
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Ni Le Bien Qu`on M`a Fait, Ni Le Mal
Tout Ca M`est Bien Egal
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
C`est Paye, Balaye, Oublie, Je Me Fous Du Passe
Avec Mes Souvenirs J`ai Allume Le Feu
Mes Shagrins, Mes Plaisirs,
Je N`ai Plus Besoin D`eux
Balaye Les Amours Avec Leurs Tremolos
Balaye Pour Toujours
Je Reparas A Zero
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Ni Le Bien Qu`on M`a Fait, Ni Le Mal
Tout Ca M`est Bien Egal
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Car Ma Vie, Car Me Joies
Aujourd`hui Ca Commence Avec Toi
(oh and I take no responsibility for the accuracy of the lyrics... although I approve wholeheartedly of the sentiment! wink )
I know!
Specsavers are great! Thanks Edith!
