when you know better you do better

Fallen by Susan Hodgin

"I don't know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes - it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, 'Well if I'd known better I'd have done better', that's all."
---------------Maya Angelou (poet, writer, educator, activist)
