DarrkeT, thanks for the comments
and "crit"! I'll have to go back and read that line again. I wrote this one a long time ago. Anyway, it is truly how I see life. Mistakes in life are just lessons we learn from them. It's easier to keep that in mind when life gets difficult. Easier said than done, but it does help to remember it.

This is a great poem. I really like the thoughts/ideas it expresses. I'm impressed that you could make it all rhyme. One line seemed a little off on the rythmn - the one that ends in "Other Side". I think there were one or two too many syllables in it. (Poetry is very hard for me in general, so take the crit for what it's worth...)
I like the idea of life as a series of lessons that we learn. When I look at things that way, I usually find more resources - inner strength, creativity, etc. to help me cope with the "problems".
