hmmm....

A little boy used to do as well in school as his elder sister. To spur them on, their father said the child with the better results would have a new toy. The family wasn’t well-off, but which child wouldn’t want a toy? In the end, the elder sister got the toy. Disappointed, the boy felt that he could never do as well as his sister. Not wanting to watch the boy give up on himself, his sister let him have the toy. But there are certain things which you can’t give up to another. With his pride wounded, the boy smashed they toy angrily on the floor, he even told his sister not to feel sorry for him. Upset, his sister ignored him for some time, by the time she wanted to help her brother in his studies; he had already chosen to give up.

True failure is when you decide to throw in the towel. So long as we work towards our goal, we will realize our dreams one day. Failures are not scary, what’s scary is when we choose to give up on ourselves. Though we can’t live our lives all over again, we can still try again after a failure, so long as we’ve done our best and learn from the failure, we wouldn’t have lived in vain.
