'To Err Is Human': 20 Quotes About Second Chances
Second chances don’t always come easy. Whether we’re seeking a redo of our own actions or giving a loved one another chance, starting over is often deeply intertwined with strong emotions that make the potential for forgiveness and perseverance more complex.
Yet second chances are by nature hopeful, usually granted on the presumption that past mistakes can educate us on how to head into a brighter future. Under the right circumstances and with a bit of self-introspection, an opportunity to start anew can produce relationships that are stronger than ever before, and accomplishments we could never have achieved without learning from the past. Here are 20 modicums of wisdom to keep in mind about the benefits of giving it another go.
