Dear Failure
by Maxine Blackburn, Owner of Alpha Soul Cafe
www.AlphaSoulCafe.ca

This was inspired by Nick Vujicic's book "Life without Limits." Born without neither arms, nor legs he is truly an inspiration with his fabulous passion for life. He's a constant example of getting back up no matter how many times you get knocked down!


Dear Failure,
Thank you for being there
.For telling me what doesn’t work
And showing me what I need to change.
Encouraging me to try again,
Hoping this time you won’t be there.

And when I forget your message,
Feel free to remind me.
The second time I see you,
I’ll understand your importance.
No longer running away,
For the first time, I will hear you.

You have crushed my opinions
And destroyed my world.
Leaving space for fresh perspective
And opportunities I never dreamed of.
I might blame you, but please be patient.
I’m still learning to get back up again.

You have forever changed me,
And I know you haven’t finished.
But as much as I try to avoid you,
Please don’t give up on me.
Because without you,
I wouldn’t be who I am today.
