In that quiet corner where doubt takes shelter,73Please respect copyright.PENANAZl1B5EaiVA
Fear lingers—unbidden, unwelcome.73Please respect copyright.PENANAFP2hYGFMzW
It murmurs in the recesses of the mind,73Please respect copyright.PENANAXvvpmCv4uJ
A chorus of imagined verdicts, cruel and premature.
Time, that merciless mirror, enlarges each flaw,73Please respect copyright.PENANADredw2CjZS
Every misstep replayed in merciless clarity.73Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ1rVysBzq
But here lies a truth so often overlooked:73Please respect copyright.PENANAJyeq0kG2qS
Even the fall teaches, if one dares to see.
What we call failure is seldom the end—73Please respect copyright.PENANAo9FtsAPlca
More often, it is a turning, a redirection.73Please respect copyright.PENANAuG69yaM8GQ
Growth, after all, is not without bruises;73Please respect copyright.PENANA4F9Efa7FCV
The soil of progress is tilled by imperfection.
So if you should find yourself adrift,73Please respect copyright.PENANA9WzmnIKrjG
Measure not the distance from the shore,73Please respect copyright.PENANA1c801d2aMQ
But the courage it takes to stay afloat—73Please respect copyright.PENANAdc4nfFXDTO
To keep rowing when the map is no more.
Let your missteps speak, not of shame, but of becoming.73Please respect copyright.PENANAL7PTUtPhuF
Let each scar be footnoted with wisdom hard-won.73Please respect copyright.PENANAJxkyAhwlEG
We are all unfinished stories,73Please respect copyright.PENANAtxfHn6pPxg
And in some chapters, failure is simply foresight.
