Today is a new day. You will get out of it just what you put into it. … If you have made mistakes, even serious mistakes, there is always another chance for you. And supposing you have tried and failed again and again, you may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call “failure” is not the falling down, but the staying down. –Mary Pickford
After the Storm
The storms may come And limbs may break;
Yet others bend Beneath the weight–
Of heavy rain And windy breeze…
A storm can mark The strongest trees.
Life sometimes deals With us this way;
In unseen trials We meet each day.
It’s not how much our bodies break
Or how much they may bend;
It’s Our Outlook In Our Own Life
That helps our spirits mend!
–Hilen Letiro
Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. –Arnold Schwarzenegger
Keep Standing!
I love that, failure is not the falling, it’s in the staying… Very profound!
I’m sure there is no one out there who has NOT made a mistake… we would never learn if we didn’t have that kind of reference point!
L: So true! Yet we are so quick to judge others and cast them aside when they make a mistake(s). Like we are so perfect.
