There will be those days where you've been swimming in the ocean of failure for months in an attempt to reach the land of success. You finally are only a fingertip away from the land. Only for a tidal wave to come and sweep you back to the starting point of the ocean.

But you see, it's all ok. You have not truly reached that land of success until you have been swept back. Moving forward without being sent back is never truly moving forward.

You may have to start over many times, but soon enough, you will go from "start" to the first four letters in "start": star.

Meghan, all can say is...you're right. I love the metaphor of failure and tidal waves, and success would be reaching the ocean. :star: You are one!

Usually I don't even comment on Wisdom posts, but this post was very good, and true also.
