Failing

Is the way we find humility. 

To fall. To be on our knees. To break.

It, like winning, is not a permanent condition.

Although in the depths of failing it feels like a forever land.

The pattern of failing, the groove of despair, weaves more of itself.

We must step away. Find another point of focus. Shake it off like a dog. 

Exhale.

Restore our feet centered on the ground.

Lift our chin, eye a future. Hold steady.

Learn from the fall. 

Take the next step.
