“Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement.” ~ C.S. Lewis
The road to life is never a smooth path...hence, the potholes. Everyone views failure differently but it is how you make your mark in life that defines you. Throwing in the towel at the age of thirty or forty is the easy way out because life is just beginning. There is still another 350,652 hours to live...do you accept that challenge? The best part (or not) is that you don't have to waste 18-22 years in school again. Unless, you are walking in my shoes and feel the need to always be a student. Failure is only measured by what you didn't accomplish. Trying your best is all anyone can ask...this will never bring failure. Disappointment is hard to overcome, but bend over and pull-up your big boy/girl boot straps.
Talking of potholes I'm sitting in a huge one. I still haven't developed a thesis statement for my English research paper. My topic is Cryptography. I have no idea where to go with it...I would like to tie WWII into something with today. I'm starting to think I'm going to have to argue that using our credit/debit cards over the internet is not as secure as we think.
Time to finish my day of rest...
