Success is the name of the game of life. That's what we all want, isn't it? To succeed, to make something of ourselves. To be the best of the best. Because apparently, just doing your best isn't enough anymore. Oh, no--you have to be the best. Yoda had it right: "Do or do not. There is no try." And there is no try in this world. No one really cares if you try your best but fail anyway. It's all about getting things right the first time, or working at whatever it is until you do. It doesn't matter much if you work at something you don't understand, but still don't understand it afterwards.
Don't you wish that it was okay to fail sometimes? Don't you wish that it wasn't the end of the world if you weren't perfect? Or perhaps these things are true, and you simply don't realize it. Perhaps it's only about dreaming bigger every time. You can't fail every time--sooner or later, you'll succeed. I suppose that's what's supposed to happen. You fail, then you fail bigger, and then you might fail even bigger, but at some point, you'll succeed the biggest. Atrocious grammar aside, that's the game of life. You lose a lot of the time, but eventually? You'll find what you're searching for. It's just a matter of looking in the right places.
Thank God that He doesn't depend on our successes in order to move! I am so thankful He can use our mistakes as much as our victories, because He knows how often we fail :)
