In that quiet corner where doubt takes shelter,229Please respect copyright.PENANAYaIPZI1I2A
Fear lingers—unbidden, unwelcome.229Please respect copyright.PENANAJTXDyMLBqM
It murmurs in the recesses of the mind,229Please respect copyright.PENANAbKP686fCN9
A chorus of imagined verdicts, cruel and premature.
Time, that merciless mirror, enlarges each flaw,229Please respect copyright.PENANAWzIA5J0uAV
Every misstep replayed in merciless clarity.229Please respect copyright.PENANAZP8eLzyfXn
But here lies a truth so often overlooked:229Please respect copyright.PENANAGMOBhOrdLb
Even the fall teaches, if one dares to see.
What we call failure is seldom the end—229Please respect copyright.PENANAH7eO5LNJ8q
More often, it is a turning, a redirection.229Please respect copyright.PENANAzzJ1KUXbHY
Growth, after all, is not without bruises;229Please respect copyright.PENANA49mLTJI5fq
The soil of progress is tilled by imperfection.
So if you should find yourself adrift,229Please respect copyright.PENANA5TITxEk9v5
Measure not the distance from the shore,229Please respect copyright.PENANA8p3PePpIbB
But the courage it takes to stay afloat—229Please respect copyright.PENANAPorRe9IIDB
To keep rowing when the map is no more.
Let your missteps speak, not of shame, but of becoming.229Please respect copyright.PENANAhzF4rMnRgW
Let each scar be footnoted with wisdom hard-won.229Please respect copyright.PENANA6PY4TlopxY
We are all unfinished stories,229Please respect copyright.PENANAiuGD8ZN5bj
And in some chapters, failure is simply foresight.
