Fruit
Achievements are like freshly picked fruit
They taste good, but they have the dirt of mistakes on them
It’s never good to ignore that dirt,
Always wash your fruit before you enjoy it.
Some people drink the dirty water instead,
Choosing to focus on the bitterness of the dirt instead of indulging in the sweetness of the fruit.
Other people choose to always indulge in the fruit, but then grow surprised when the fruit no longer tastes the same after awhile
Don’t let your fruit grow sour,
But don’t let the bitterness of dirt overpower you
