We don't make the same mistakes as our parents. We make entirely different ones. They say every generation thinks it's smarter than the previous and wiser than the next. History repeats itself. Our parents were once us. Someday, we'll be them. I wonder whether they too told themselves that they'll never make the same mistakes as their parents. I wonder whether we'll be any more successful than them.

I wonder whether we'll be any more successful than them - we probably will be, but in an entirely different way. success to us is not what success was to them.

i really believe in making your own mistakes. if you can learn from the mistakes of others, thats amazing, but if you cant...not to worry. you're just another me. and there are millions of us. trust me.
