Did We Fail?

During the past months we have had many experiences where for one reason or another our expectations were not met. There were times when we felt like abject failures ... in our families, at the workplace, even in our spiritual experiences.

In retrospect were we really failures?

I have learned that such experiences are not really failures. You see an experience is not a failure:

1) If it pushes us to keep on trying. Quitting is really not an option.

2) If through it we discover our mistakes and put that knowledge to good use

3) If through it we discover our true selves

4) If through it we become better disciplined persons

5) If through it we come to to a deeper knowledge of God

So did we really fail? You decide.

Happy holidays!!! Love you all.
