Failure

You never know when it's going to hit you, you never know when it will strike. It seems that nowadays you cannot avoid failure, regardless of who you are. Take for example a test you've studied ridiculously for, one that you cannot possibly fail at, and yet karma has a way of coming at you for being so proud. Not only is this based on personal experience but I believe others are bottled in these situations as well. Nevertheless we continue on, disregarding our failures and carving a path ahead to the future not learning a thing from our past mistakes. It seems to be a reoccurring theme now, as you try your hardest and fail you move on and learn nothing from those failures, but when you fail yet again you question why? I have no words of wisdom for this for I too have had my share of failures, it is something that is just unavoidable, unpredictable. Have you ever worked hard to the point where you sweat blood and have no doubt in your mind that you will succeed, only to have the world crush you for your insolence and fail you? I do believe everyone has experienced this once, and what do you do when that happens? Some get up and try again and some just lie there, begging for it to stop. What I want to drive at right now is this, learn from failures, learn from mistakes do not overcompensate your own ability because there is a sure likelihood that your abilities are exaggerated. Broken dreams, hearts and shattered hopes are side effects, it is like death it unnoticed until it approaches you and consumes you. Abilities are not enough, nor is hard work because the world is cruel and will exploit all weakness and failures. It is hard to get up sometimes, and yet most of us still do but presently I wish to just lie there and let my failures consume me, but I guess that is a tad emotional. Learn from mistakes, don't disregard them.

Sincerely
