Failures Today

On my knees, broken, tear streaked faced, my shame haunting me. I must remind myself, that I am being trained, that every time I've fallen, I learned to walk stronger through the pain. This moment wasn't has defeating as before, the heartache is healing quicker, and these failures of today are a gentle push, a clear insight, a conquered fight, one that will ultimately build me up again. I am given a retrospective moment, reminding me of before, showing that my last failure was much greater than today, giving me hope that the future trials will be easier to diminish, and I will see the truth. The failure of today is just a gentle nudge, giving me the strength and faith till the battle is truly done.
