Failure

**mulk91** · 04-09-2006

They say that to err is human,

and doubtlessly that's true,

but what they forgot to tell you

is that mistakes mean growth for you.

Failure never means defeat,

and to slip is never a sin;

instead, it's a chance to get back up

and climb the hill again.

Take the setbacks in stride

and make failure a time of reflection.

Remember that it takes practice

should you hope to gain perfection.

Even if you veer from the path

and find yourself astray,

if you hold your dream dear,

you'll eventually find the way.

And when you look back to the trials you endured in the past,

it will be such an incredible feeling,

to know that you made it at last.

Alhamdulilah, very inspiring poem masha Allah.

you know there's a saying that goes like this;

''A wise man learns from other people's mistakes and a foul learns from its own!''
