It's O.K...

Thomas Edison said, "...I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." A very inspirational quote. It is indeed true that each life's step is filled with things that would not work. And it is the failures that hurts the most but few realise that the falls are the best lessons of the day.

Every day, life is a lesson to be learnt. Nothing bad actually happens, always good things but it is sad to say that there are a few who do not see this. Failures are meant to happen and the way to understand a failure is to truly understand why it happened and what should be done about it.

Today's society is full of people with "finger pointing" habits. Blaming or criticising people on what they do and have done. The finger never is pointed back into their direction. What will the world come to if people continue to do so? We read about wars and conflicts in countries. Why does that happen? The answer lies within an individual. The world will be a better place to live if people in a society learn to stop looking at other peoples' failures and learn to deal with their own failures first.

Mistakes are a common thing. We hear about human errors a lot. So why do people make a big issue out of small things. Maybe the reason is them. They have so much of low self-esteem that they try to make other people look small.

And so in the words of Thomas Edison," many of life's failures are people who did not realise how close they were to success when they gave up." So failures are not a stumbling block, it is a just a hurdle. Make the leap with pride and honour because people will continue to be who they are. It is the difference we begin to make in our lives that make the world a better place .

Remember -"When you blame others, you give up your power to change", Robert Anthony.
