Failures Can Become Successes

by patcelaw





It has been a rule in my life
I'll not feel badly about a failure
for it's in the failings that I learn
how one day I'll become a success.

I would much rather fail until
I ultimately succeed
than to succeed and have
it become an ultimate failure.

Too many times when we fail
then we choose to just quit
when if we learn from our failures
often in the end we'll find we succeed.

Never, never give up
for success could well be ours
with the next time we try,
so we should never give up.

We are only failures when we quit.

The bedspread you see in the photo is one that was inspired by having done another and entered in the fair. I failed to win the prize I was hoping for so I learned what I could do that would make this one a winner which it was.
