Answer 2

I don't know. Ask me in 10 years when I am 30, than I will probably have something for ya. I haven't really "lived" enough to do something so horrible that I consider it my biggest mistake. Everything I have done has given me something better in life. Like a husband, a little boy, and a house. So I really have nothing I consider a mistake. BUT in 10 years anything can happen.

Answer 3

The biggest mistake I ever made was thinking I knew better than God and as a result I was in two unhealthy relationships as well as one abusive relationship.

God in his mercy blessed me more than I could ever dream of,
but I had to hurt before I could heal.

Another big mistake was putting things before God and NOT seeking Him or Keeping Him first, I have learned the hard way that God knows best, there is a God the true living God and I am not Him.
