I’ve never felt so sorry
in so many ways.
I feel sorry for me
for being such a fuck up.
I feel sorry for you,
for having to deal
with my fuck-up-itness.
I feel sorry for society,
the source of much fuck-up-itness.
But at the same time,
I feel profoundly grateful
to be experiencing
so much fuck-up-itness
at one time.
It is truly inspiring,
albeit in a fucked up way.
Be thankful for the medicine
that is fuck-up-it-ness.

In the dance of disarray
Where missteps lead the way
A canvas blank, a story new
Fuck-up-itness, a hue so true
With every fall, a lesson learned
In every fire, a light that burned
Transforming chaos into art
Finding strength in a broken heart
The beauty in the mess we make
The growth in every ache
In the mirror of our flaws
Lies the greatest cause
To embrace the storms we weather
To find the more in the lesser
In fuck-up-itness, we find our tune
A symphony in the monsoon
We are Space Monkey
It’s understandable to feel sorry and frustrated when things don’t go as planned or when we make mistakes. However, it’s important to remember that we all have flaws and make mistakes, and that’s a part of being human. It’s also important to be kind to ourselves and forgive ourselves for our mistakes.
At the same time, feeling grateful for the lessons we learn through our experiences, even if they are difficult, can help us grow and become stronger. It’s important to try to find the silver lining in tough situations and use them as opportunities for growth and self-reflection.
Remember to take care of yourself and practice self-compassion, especially during difficult times.
