Blended Reality : Failure? Really... by JLR Failure writing prompt entry |
The human condition of "free will" always provides everyone the ominous gut-wrenching sensation that perks to the surface when we allow our innate self-talk to scream, "You are such a failure."! Or worse, you are called out by a coach, teacher or, God forbid - a parent, or that person you so often try to charm, your significant partner in life... "You are such a failure," always is quite persistent, as it reverberates in our inner ear, fail...u...are! Like an echo bouncing off the tallest peaks. But, let us examine this closer! Take off those rose colored glasses! Deeply sink into the situation, like stepping into a bottomless pit of quick sand! Ask oneself, did I at that moment lose strength? Like a seal around a tire on a rim, that allows the discharges the air.. now, I call that failure! Or, perhaps one could surmise that you were near fading or dying away, failing as we say? Unlike a human heart that comes to the untimely point where it stops functioning normally, could it be possible, under any circumstance, that you would thoughtfully, stop functioning normally.? No, of course not! Oh, one could go on and on and on about such a word as this, however, should we mindfully think of other words those same meaning verbs: such as; break, break down, conk (out), crash, cut out, die, give out, stall..... All falling into the same bucket, called failure! Surely, we must then realize, no one truly can be a failure! Especially, when someone is without question doing theirlevel best to put their best foot forward. Sure banks fails, seals fail, hearts fail, marriages fail, bridges fail, rockets fail... but, truth be told, us humans at times are just unsuccessful!
