Adversity and Character

QUOTE

"You know what FAILING stands for?... F-A-I-L-I-N-G..... It stands for FINDING AN IMPORTANT LESSON. INVITING NEEDED GROWTH" (Gary Busey)

ADVERSITY AND CHARACTER

Although success is my final goal

I have found failing is what made me whole

I find important lessons more far reaching

With personal experience a part of my teaching

Positive influence I prefer to know

But usually when I stumble I tend to grow

Scars remind me how vulnerable I have been

Adversity in my sails is a very strong wind

Fail once or twice but never again

In each life lesson I hold within

Strong storms at sea make a better sailor

He's known too many hard lessons to become a failure
